The week before Thanksgiving and the few days after was one big party at our house. We had company come and stay with us, and that meant lots of family get togethers. It was a lot of fun. The kids always have fun when they get together with their cousins, and it's nice for the adults to hang out and catch up. Sunday we had an early Christmas party. Since everyone was together we had dinner and let the cousins exchange gifts. It was a fun night and nice to all be together; it doesn't happen enough. We got together a few more times throughout the week and then had Thanksgiving at Grandpa and Grandma O'Farrell's. The kids had lots of sleepovers with their cousins, and had their annual Christmas party/sleepover at Grandma and Grandpa's too. Every year they have all the kids ages 3+ over for a sleepover. The kids love it, and Grandma and Grandpa are exhausted by the end. I don't know why, there are only around 20 kids there. The kids come home with loads of stuff and filled with sugar. On Saturday Brooke and Aaron blessed their new baby Luke. He is so cute. My girls were so excited for them to come stay with us. They were so excited to hold him. After the blessing we went to a movie. We have spent the last few days trying to recover from a busy, crazy week; but would do it again. We love getting together with everyone. We are so lucky to have such a great family who gets along with each other and enjoys being together.
Brady and Drew-these two were so funny all week. They played pretty good together considering they are two years old.

The famous Dzierzon hug. I guess she liked Taylor's present.

Cute baby Luke. It was so fun having a baby around here again. And even better that I didn't have to get up with him at night.
