Chocolate Lovers

Our first stop in California was at my mom's, where we were able to get all of the cousins together in one place--I think for the first time. We went for some good walks to enjoy the weather.

Rachel's girls and my girls

Steven and Alex became fast friends

Everyone went to this kids science museum that turned out to be pretty fun for all ages.

Alex trying to give Brycen a hug

Crazy Uncle Matt

Keturah sabotaging Alex's Wii skills

And a lot of just hanging out

Keturah getting acquainted with Uncle Nathan...

and Aunt Mary

The girls playing Christmas carols

Watching "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" on Uncle Jedd's computer

This is just some of us enjoying one of the many delicious meals.

Uncle Danny always underestimates his knack for taking care of babies. Here's the proof, Dans.

And some actual Christmas (Eve) pictures of the kiddies.

We attempted a picture of all 13 cousins...it didn't work out so well. There were always at least 2 not looking or not in the picture at all, along with some others doing random things.

This one is missing Brian and is including Aunt Heather.

And this one has just a glimpse of Brian's shirt and only part of Jason, but I really like Alex and Steven's poses.
