Christmas Week!

We had quite the holiday this year. So many people were visiting this year which was great! We had lots of family over on Christmas day. Cousin Cathy and Frank from Indianapolis, Aunt Carol and Uncle Carl (he's 93!!) flew in from Ft. Wayne, Scott's brother Steve, wife Ann and kiddos Neils and Jens from California...along with the local group of Grandma, Grandpa, Mom Jo, Mel, Jason and buddy Cade. It was really fun to see everyone and spend time together. We were also able to spend time with the Browns from North Carolina due to recent circumstances (see posts below). We ended the week with an extended stay at New Smyrna Beach in beautiful Florida weather. We're looking forward to all that this new year will hold, and how God will prove himself faithful to us once again. Here are many pictures from Christmas. Beach pictures to come!

P.S. Can you tell Julie made the slide show ??:)

P.S. AGAIN~~~~~the beach we're on in the photo below is Smyrna Dunes Park in North New Smyrna Beach. It's a state park that I didn't know about and it's absolutely pristine! Get in your cars and drive there now! 1/2 of the park is on the river, and the other 1/2 is the Atlantic. You can walk all the way around seeing nature at it's finest...especially with Eloise, Leni and Katie-who-will-not-talk-at-school-but-at-home-NEVER-has-a-quiet-moment doing a play-by-play of the birds, dolphins, sharks, sharks, sharks...did I say sharks??!!:)
