Five Families, A Wedding and a Christmas!

So this is the last of several posts for the day. To catch up on our last few months you can scroll through and view all of them. I tried to break it up so it would be a little less overwhelming. For Christmas week we all went up to Estes Park for 3 nights. There were 13 kids and 11 adults in a wonderful "cabin" in the mountains. On Christmas eve we had a surprise wedding for my sister. Her boyfriend proposed and 5 minutes later we had the ceremony. Of course this was only a surprise to her and the rest of us were in on it and took care of all the planning. It was a wonderful experience! Here are some photos from Christmas week.
Here are the boys waiting for the wedding to begin.The happy couple during the song.
