We celebrated Christmas with Dave's family in Pennsylvania this year! Since we all wanted to attend Dave's grandmother's 90th birthday bash the day after Christmas in PA, we decided to spend our Christmas there as well! We rented a great house near Lancaster and had a great time together!
Here are some pre-Christmas pictures...
The kids reunited with Poppy!
...and Aunt Laurelyn!
These 3 spent a lot of time outside! They loved it and it kept them out of trouble :)
I put this one in because I kept calling Lexi to come in the picture and she kept saying, "No!" She DID NOT appreciate the cold as much as these 3 kiddos! She came out a few times and for a short amount of time before she'd had enough!
In front of our rental house, a tree had been cut down but not removed yet. Well, the kids thought it was great! They made "fires" and climbed all over the big logs.

So much fun!
Lexi managed to give me a few smiles!
Cousins!
We decided to explore the backyard and, of course, Ben needed his hose for the exploration!
Ben is behind the girls because he was continuing to struggle with the hose!
The twins!
Poppy was very excited when Lexi was showing him the baby doll she found at the house!
Great Grandmom (Dave's grandmother) spent a few days with us and it was wonderful to celebrate with her! Here she is holding Grant and Maaike's holding her beloved 'Yellow Bear', which was a Christmas present from Grandmom a few years ago!
Aunt Laurelyn and her youngest nephew, Grant!
Dave's Aunt Bette Ann got us a tree, so we set it up and decorated it!
Libby made some photo ornaments for the tree!
Our stockings...
Decorating some homemade ornaments that Aunt Bette Ann made! It was a great way to keep them busy!
He just warms my heart!

So we had to go explore it! No Lexi though! She was over the cold!
