Christmas

Ok, I know it's March, and I am finally posting Christmas pictures. But if I may offer a good excuse :), due to the crazy weather around Christmas that prevented us from traveling back to family, we rescheduled our Christmases and had one in January and one in February. So when you consider that...I'm not as late as it may seem. :)

Long story short, we celebrated Christmas in a different way this year on actual Christmas Day. We were invited to my dear friend Steph's parents house and were warm and well fed in the presence of a loving family. Thank you Lord, though we were snowed in back in Lincoln, that we had a wonderful Christmas celebration afterall!

Here are some pictures of the cousins at our make up Christmas celebrations!

--The Engel cousins (this group will grow by two next year!)



--The Maxson side cousins (This group will grow by ONE next year :) Unless my sister decides to surprise us with some news on number 5! Ha!)



Our Burwell Christmas (my mom's extended side of family) all met in Kearney at the Holiday Inn and we swam and ate. :) Fun times! No group pic of the kids though :(


Merry Christmas in March! :)
