Christmas 2011

Christmas morning always seems to turn to chaos rather quickly. I guess that's what comes of having five children. I wouldn't trade the chaos for anything though, it's at least happy chaos.





I made new pillowcases for the kids this year, it took them a minute to figure out what they were, but after that they were excited. My favorite part was how Emma was confused "When did you make these?". I do enjoy surprising them.


Here they are in their new outfits, they are a bunch of good looking kids if I do say so myself.


Later in the day we spent some time with the Grimstead side of the family. Andrew had a blast wrestling with Uncle Josh. We always enjoy spending time with family, the kids especially love playing with their cousins.

It's been another busy, but great year. I'm so thankful for Ben and for our little family. I'm especially thankful that I've been able to stay home and raise our children. Here's looking forward to another great year.
