Family Christmas 2011

Every year, same weekend, same place my mom hosts a 'family Christmas' celebration for her 5 siblings and their offspring (and their offspring too). The headcount ranges from 25-35 people each year. I really give us all some credit on this. Specifically, the young people. Young being my unmarried, not-minor-any-longer cousins. They actually have a choice (unlike my kids) whether to make the trip or no and they do. Not only do they come, but they dare to bring significant others and they even stay for the night (or two). Love you all!

This time is so valuable to my kids. They love all of their aunts and uncles and cousins so much that the next 364 days of their lives are basically below standard ;)
