We spent this Christmas with Josh's family. We typically take turns where we'll visit my family for Thanksgiving and his for Christmas one year and then his family for Thanksgiving and my family for Christmas the next year.
As we were driving around his hometown, which is along the Mississippi River in Louisiana, Josh commented that he forgot how flat it was back in his hometown. I snapped a picture:
Josh's mom caught a picture of us in our church clothes. No idea where Andrew was! :)
This was the first time in over 10 years that all the siblings have been together in one place. Here is Josh with his two younger brothers and two younger sisters:
Here are the siblings with their spouses and children:
Josh's brother has a daughter that is almost exactly a year older than our girls and another daughter that is almost exactly a year younger than our girls. We snapped a picture of them at breakfast one morning:
And last, but not least, our Christmas pajamas. I usually went with men's bottoms to match my guys but this year I got to match my girls!!! :) :) :)
Andrew used some Christmas money to buy a build a bear. He named it after Josh's brother who, in Andrew's eyes, is the coolest guy ever and he plays the guitar! :) Josh's brother is an outstanding guy and I'm pleased that Andrew looks up to him:

I'm glad you posted the pictures! We had left our camera at Holly and Joel's so we didn't get any pictures of all of the siblings.
I love the girls jammies where did you get them. I had the hardest time this year with the matching jammies.
How fun that you had someone to match with!!! :-) We just gave up on matching this year and got whatever jammies I thoguth people would like. It actually worked.
I can't believe how tall Andrew is! I was thinking about him at three years old the first night we met you guys in Japan... How far we all have come and how much life has changed! Great pics. Thanks as always for sharing... Love, Angie
haha My brother got me a build a bear when I was in college. It was sooo much fun. Mine's name is Odie and he has fishing gear on.
