the extended family christmas

monday morning we loaded up and drove back to ontario for christmas with my mom's side of the family. they're usually a good time and this time was no different! we started with a very yummy brunch before the boys discovered the marshmellow guns my mom and dad had made and started a sticky war out in the yard. it looked like it had snowed! there were marshmellows everywhere!

eric, kenton and rich. trouble cubed.
the boys took a break from their combat long enough to open presents, play the dice game, and take a few pictures :). hot ticket items in the dice game this year included the usual see's candy, in-n-out gift cards, and one that hardly made it across the room before getting snatched again - a $25 nordstrom gift card! eric managed to walk away with that one :).
grandma lila and her great-grandsons!
love them...miss them terribly...
the mulder family. typical.
the whole family (minus joel, alane & respective families)
dada modeling kiah's new jacket!
pretty sisters!
the "grown-up" cousins - hehehe
it was good to see everyone again, even if it wasn't nearly a long enough visit.
