Hot Chocolate and Family Time

After being out in temperatures hovering around zero, we warmed up with a little hot chocolate.

Fully Enjoyed!

After a bit of window shopping in town, we headed out for lunch at our favorite Pizza spot!

After pizza, we headed to my mom and step-dad's for Christmas celebration number 2!

Somehow my sister ended up at the kiddie table

Soaking up the cousin time!

It then came time to celebrate with my dad and step-mom at their house...

All the 7 kids on my side of the family (can't wait for my sister's new baby from Ethiopia to be with us next Christmas!!)

Sadly, T came down with a virus and fever around 104 that day and was out for the count for the next few days.

T crawled up on Daddy's lap and simply fell asleep in the middle of the party.

My sister had a brilliant idea of taking the boys to burn all their energy out before our 23 hour car ride home later that day...

I am convinced that this helped tremendously with their great ride home!  :)
