This was actually the end result of our tree decorating. Chaos!

I planned to take photos of the kids on this freezing day, but all I got was the mountain man.

This girl worked on untangling the lights like one determined by the true spirit of Christmas.

This year it was Dania's turn to perch on the father to place the angel

Dancing to the beat of O Holy Night

The hooded man is Austin, whom I didn't even have to beg to participate in the decorating, so I didn't even mind the hooded garb.

The resident photographer took a break to hug the tree

He mocks my beautiful novelties.

Thankful

We had a lovely holiday week filled with cooking, fellowship and memories. 

Thankful

cleaning before guests arrive.

the women prepare before the feast begins

delighting in all the food

We set up tables in the living room

a game of basketball with the cousins and the uncles

this girl helped me disembowel the turkey

she collected the vertebra and played a game with the bones
