VanDalen Christmas Gathering

The Barb VanDalen party is always one of my favs!! These peeps are just fun and easy to be around....sure it gets loud (very loud) and sure there are massive amounts of kids running around...but there is so much love and camaraderie! We laugh and talk and laugh and just celebrate! This year was no different!! We are sooo happy to welcome, Bryce Lankaar (born to Tasha & Trevor), Dave Huetink (married Shannon), James Powell (married McKenzie), Grady VanDalen (adopted by Blake and Liss), Andrew Sanders (born to Lacey and Mark), and Adrienne Silva (married to Paul) to our crew!! More chaos....but more to love!!
All the yummy goodies!
The crew plating up!

Jake and Guela eating the soup and sandwiches!! Yummy!

Socializing over some good grub!
James and Kenz. James being the newest member to the family that can read...was given the honor of reading the Christmas Story. He did a great job. It's important to remember the reason for the season!
We are a large crew...getting bigger by the day, but there is so much love and intimacy!! What a blessing!!
