What I Did During Christmas Vacation, a.k.a. Guess Who Learned How to Make a Collage?

Wow, it's been a long time since I've posted. We had a very busy, and very fun, two weeks of Christmas break. We saw lots and lots of family, and then we saw some more family. The kids had so much fun playing with so many of their cousins. First we went to a cabin up in the mountains, where we played in the snow. That is a rarity for us, so it was fun and exciting. The kids built a snowman, and even Ben got up close and personal with the cold white stuff.

Here are most of the cousins we were with. They're great. And fun. And very, very tall.

The kids even went sledding for what may have been their first time ever. How sad is that? They had a blast. Caleb was all into it, going down the hill again and again. Very unusual for our physically cautious child. We were very proud.

After that we came home and celebrated Christmas at our house. Most of Ben's toys were hand-me-downs from his older brother and sister. Don't worry, I had them clean them off with disinfectant wipes first. :)

This was phase one of our Christmas break. Get excited for phase two.
