On Christmas Day the extended Van Essen family got together at Dad and Fay's. We had a wonderful time - just hanging out, catching up, playing games, and of course eating food. At one point in the afternoon all the great-grands were nicely sitting on couches watching Cars 2 - now that is hard to believe! But I have a picture to prove it!
I love these extended family gatherings - I love family! Now only if I had gotten a picture or two of the afternoon football game played in the backyard. With no snow this year, and unseasonable warm temps, playing backyard football (in Minnesota) on Christmas Day was a reality.
I do have a picture or two of some of the indoor activities. Dad and Fay's basement worked great for hosting a lot of people.
Grandma Great with one of her newest Great-Grandchildren...she has 34 if I'm counting correctly! We love you Grandma Great! You made all this family time possible -by being the mother, grandmother, and great grandma of all these wonderful people! We LOVE you!
Merry Christmas Everyone!!!!
