Pistorius side of Christmas

Dilan learned how to climb the stairs Christmas evening at David's mom's house
Dilan with her Aunt Wendy - our newest college grad in the family
A lot of the cousins - 9 out of the 16. David's oldest sister and her six kids were in Utah and the only one missing here was the newest grandchild, Janie, who was sick.
The three boys all born within 9 months of each other getting their remote control cars from David's mom. Drew and Ethan (E is on the left) could not be better pals playing and playing together. Drew cried when he had to leave Ethan.
Our visit with David's grandmother (his dad's mom) in her new apartment. Our kids call her Gigi.
Making gingerbread houses at David's mom's house - here is the one Drew and David made together. Drew really emphasized the white marshmallows all over the roof of the house - maybe because we live in so much snow!
Unfortunately, this is where we visit David's brother and father. But it was a beautiful Sunday to go to the cemetery and get some special shots. It is important to remember all of our family members this time of year.
Dilan's first time visiting Uncle Buddy's grave.
