Merry Christmas!

As expected, here's a boat load of pictures from our various Minnesota Christmas celebrations. We did Christmas morning with Laura and Ben, a little bit on Christmas evening with Collin, Hayley, Amy, and her boyfriend Paul, and then the day after Christmas with the whole gang. Here's how it went...

Let's start with our group holiday picture -- everybody smile!
