Christmas Eve

We spend Christmas Eve out at my parent's with Cory & Annie and the kids, Ben's Great Grandma & Grandpa Barthel, and Great Aunt Carol from Chicago.

Family picture before we headed to Christmas Eve Mass.

Wouldn't be a complete family photo without the puppies. :)

Grandma & Grandpa loved helping celebrate Ben's 1st Christmas.

Squeezes from Grandma.


The kids could hardly wait to start tearing into some gifts.


In the thick of it all...




Grandma & Grandpa got Ben an activity table that he can stand at and play with all kinds of gadgets...he loves it.

We always love having 'Great' Auntie Carol home from Chicago for the holidays.
This one was taken a couple nights earlier when we were able to celebrate with Ben's Great Grandma & Grandpa Begger and some of the other Begger clan.
