Christmas Cheer! Christmas Cheer!

Spending time with Mark's side of the family the 2 days after Christmas - dad's, mom's, everybody's!Payton and Harper are right where the action is...by the food:)


Shae gave Cy a Star Wars trivia game which we played at Grandpa's...and Shae actually WON! Cy wasn't on the top of his game that day, I guess.


A very nice treat was having Sara and Glenn's "international daughter" (foreign exchange student) read Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? to the children in her native Swiss German.  Very cool!


not sure if Greg meant to give me the finger??





The Davis family hosted on Sunday.  It was a lot of fun, as usual!


Sara wrapped up all kinds of prizes and candy in a huge wad of Saran Wrap.  Coupled with a dice game, it was a big hit with kids of all ages$!




Time for the annual family pics!  Dang kids keep getting bigger.  Stop it already!!
Sara and Glenn's bunch
Greg & Marin's family
Doug & Paula and the girlies
Jamey & Jackie and their kids
Ryan and Brittany

Jan and her kids - ugly Bears Christmas sweaters and all.
Grandma and all of her grandkids!  What a crew!
And the outlaws!
Squirrel!?  This actually became the most prized possession of the gift game that day.



Congrats to Jan for all of her hard work and upcoming retirement from the registrar's office!  Just a few days later, this woman finally stepped away from a full-time job after 25 years of service.  Now if we could just get her to quit the part-time gig.....she's earned full retirement so she can enjoy this growing family!
