Boxing Day was our 3rd day of Christmas at my parents' house. All 17 of us gathered in the living room and exchanged gifts. We had a theme amongst our gifts. Everyone got an embroidered towel to take on our family trip in July!
My mom surprised us all with orange Disney tshirts to wear at Disney. Orange because it's Dutch and Orange because we thought not a lot of other people would be wearing orange at Disney and we will have less of a chance of losing people/kids.
The 10 grand kids all have a number on the back, kind of like a soccer number, starting with the eldest, Megan, as 1, and ending with the new baby, 10.
We unwrapped more gifts!
We had a delicious gourmet prepared by my mom and we also did a calendar photo shoot. I always make my parents a calendar for the new year but this year I thought it would be more meaningful to include everyone and so I took pictures of everyone while we were all together (this only happens once or twice a year)
Here are some...
And these are some of the 12 I settled on for the calendar!!
And then I added our big family photo to the calendar as well.
Here are the (still) newly weds!
What a wonderful crazy Boxing Day!!
It was a great day! Great post sweetie!
