Z-family Christmas!

We sure had a fun couple of days with the grandparents, aunts & uncles, and cousins! What a change it was this year to have six little ones running and jumping (and crawling) around Grandpa and Grandma's house!

I think that the highlight of the trip for Blake was the Christmas Eve candlelight service. Blake absoluetly loves looking at lit candles. It was almost too much for him to handle when EVERYBODY got a candle to hold! (It was actually quite the disappointment for Blake when we returned Christmas morning and most of the candles were gone...) ;)

Here are some pics. Of course with all of the snow and all of the kids there was much sledding to be had:

And of course, escaping the storm meant that Nate had quite the job waiting for him when we got back home....
