Christmas Gatherings

I thought I would just quickly share a few pictures from our family gatherings. We are so fortunate to have both sides of the family so close by and all of our siblings fairly close as well. Hope you enjoy the pictures.
Erica got a new "puter" from us. She loves it and feels like such a big girl playing it.

Bethany really wanted pink legos and is loving building with them.

Jaren loves racing cars and up until now always used the treadmill for his track. :)

Not the best picture, but it sure shows how excited Bethany was to receive the Polly Pockets Roller Coaster!

Chaos...but we wouldn't have it any other way!
