Christmas - Brian's Family

Cousins...Stephen, Alex, Jack, Emma, Clara, Hailey

I loved this one, too.

Watching Grandma open a gift.

Alex helps put Clara's baby doll stroller together.

A monumental moment...the first time all of these second cousins (Brian's mom's side) have been together at the same time! Jack, Gavin, Alex, Stephen, Grace, Hailey, Clara, Emma, Gabrielle, Deegan, and Rylan.

They are the offspring of these 4 cousins...Scott, Brian, Aaron, and Rachel.

The two grandmas with their grandkids. I know Margo and Lana's parents were enjoying the gathering from Heaven!

Scott and Amy couldn't join us for Thanksgiving, so we got a family picture with them this time!  Deegan, Amy, Lana, Scott, and Rylan

The next day we went to Penguin Point (an Indiana restaurant chain with really good tenderloin sandwiches) for lunch.  The kids all fit in one booth. The girl next to Alex is his girlfriend, Jen.

Then Brian, Emma, the girls, and I went over to Larry and Lana's to do a little sledding with Rachel and her kids. Throwing snowballs at each other while Brian and Rachel get the sled hooked up.

Gavin holds on to the sled at the back while Emma, Hailey, and Clara ride on top. Clara lasted for one or two rides, but 12 degrees was just a little too cold for her! She hung out inside with Larry and Lana by the wood stove.

Larry and Lana have many acres of land they have created paths around so Rachel hooked the sled up to the back of her Jeep and pulled them around the paths.

Hailey and Emma ride together around the paths.

Grace and Gabby's turn!

Then Larry and Brian figured out how to tie two saucer sleds to the main sled and pull them all at one time.

You should have seen them all scrambling for the saucer sleds once a ride around the loop was finished. :-)

Watching Grace, Hailey and Emma go for a ride around on all 3 sleds!
