family gathering

an hour and a half road trip brought us some family togetherness: some we see on a regular basis, others we haven't seen since the last holiday season.

i ate a lot (but i had to for the good of the baby). emma and her cousin aylah had a grand time playing together. and last but not least...MORE presents to open for the kids.





































































thanks uncle alan and aunt kathy for hosting. we were glad to have made it out, and it was lovely to see everyone again.
