Family Christmas Parties/Traditions 2013

Anderson Family Scone Time!
Love, love, love this tradition and seeing my family - they are so much fun and I love catching up.
My sister hosted again this year and we had a great time.
Corinne, Cody, Steph, Makayla, Zak and Matt
My dad, Aunt Betty, Allie and Uncle Jeff
Gabe, Sky, my mom and cute Halle
These cutie girls - they rarely see each other but they are so much fun together.
Lexi, Ella, Mia and Anna
*If you look closely, Mia and Anna look like they could be twins and we laugh our heads off each time we're together.  It is so weird that they look so similar being daughters of cousins*  Love it!
My cousin Steph's fam
Aiden, Bailey and Mason with Steph and Barry
Spence playing with all the kids as usual - they love it.  It was super funny this year because the "big boys" Zak and Gabe joined in the fun too!
My cousin Cody is so great! Such a fun person - love him!
Cody, Corrine, Lexi, Makayla, Mia and Jake
*We missed you Jordan and always think of you too baby Cody*
Wow - that is a lot of kids! Logan was so cute - he was really concerned about daddy having all these kids on him - he kept crying when they were playing with Spence
My 3 and Halle taking a turn
And just add on a few more...
Rio found these pom poms and Spence had to take a pic of her - she was so excited and thought she was in heaven
First attempt - oops! Halle popped in...
This was honestly attempt number 5 probably - not great but I'll take it!
Later that night, we went to Spence's cousins house for our annual Christmas party with that fun and zany side of the family.  They are always really fun and do fun things and this year, we had a gingerbread contest!
Spence and Jax got on the same team
Austin and Rio were on Grandma Bonnie's team with a cousin's daughter Anna
Rio and Aust decorating like crazy
Uncle Marc's team ended up winning - they did a great job.  They didn't have any children on their team however which may or may not have helped :)
Spence was helping Jax decorate "his tree"
A look at 4 of the 5 houses
This was Austin and Rio's
This was Spence and Jax's house - pretty cute!
 
We had a great day and so much fun with our families!  I'm so grateful to carry on such fun family traditions with my own kids
