Christmas pictures

So I have fallen quite behind in blogging! I am going to try and be better! I don't want to miss out on recording memories that I will surely forget! We had a great Christmas and holiday season! Scott took a week off work, so we had a lot of fun with the kids. We had several family get togethers and lots of cousin time. Here's a few pictures...

Scott and I are too old to mention!
