Christmas in October

So both my sister-in-laws are pregnant and due in late December/Early January.  We usually celebrate Christmas with Peter's family in Florida and we didn't want to give it up this year, due to the pregnant ladies not being able to fly.  So we decided to have Christmas in October this year.  All of us were there for a week and a couple of us decided to stay for another week.  

We got to hang out with my 2 year old niece and 18 month old nephew.  Things were definitely different this year with more kids being around - especially 2 toddlers and a baby.  More noise, more chaos, more mess...but definitely better.  There is just so much more joy with the kids around. 

  It was very hard to get all the kids in one picture...and all in a good mood.  :)

There are so many pictures I could share from the week (we were trying to take as many as we can since we're not together often), so here is just a glimpse of how the two weeks went. 

 

Even more to come...
