a nebraska christmas.

oh what fun!   7 grandkids (lane at 4 being the oldest) under one roof for over a week.   cousins!   my mom has a sign, "grandma's house.  a place where cousins become best friends."   i so pray that for our kids.  

ok, onto pics...i didn't take tons.  if you follow me on instagram you probably noticed we were having the best time.   sometimes you're just too busy to stop & take pictures:)

logan got a stroller.   and as you can see, she is still a bit short for it.   ha:)

but boy oh boy, she loves it!

all lane and gage have played with since christmas morning...gage got a new case combine & lane got a sprayer.  

they have no idea what light sabers are, just that they are so much fun!

LOVE this picture of my gagers.   SO him!

addie & her rapunzel dress that somehow kept getting shorter as the day went on.  

new books.

thanks aunt dana & uncle jeff for the loudest toy ever.   a voice changer.   lane loves it!

we decided to have a birthday party for Jesus a few days after christmas at the bowling alley.   the kids loved it.   us parents thought "this is mass chaos" much of the time but would gladly do it again!

"give me some cake!"

penny & logan dancing it up on dance dance revolution.  

addison, the cutest in bowling shoes.
