Ella had her very first piano recital!! I wasn't sure if she would like playing the piano in front of a lot of people, but turns out - she LOVES it! She did a duet with her piano teacher, and then a song on her own. We were sooo proud!! ♥


Then it was OFF to the Vries Christmas at Joe and Jennie's! And the chaos began...!!





After dinner Lexie and Travis decided to play together
 Happy, happy!

 Uh, oh - has she learned to tattle already? LOL!

Ella and Loren were dancing to the Wii - GREAT FUN!

And then, just like that, it was all over. :(

...and we took the kids home to bed. Except pool Lil'Lex was sick and couldn't get to sleep. Plus, I'm sure her head hurt. She fell at Grandma's and bonked her forehead. She had a big bruise for DAYS! Poor little thing!
Another chaotic Christmas over for another year!!
