All Nine of Us Home for Christmas!We had all five of our kids and spouses home for the first time in about 5 years! It was a wonderful time... Hannah came all the way from Afghanistan which Dan says is about 10,000 miles away! She even brought her friend Steven from Perth. Lynnie's Christmas was over the top this year with the decorating, food and family outings!
