Hecht Family Christmas

I am so thankful that we live so close to both sides of our families and can spend the holidays with them!  We often "party hop" on Christmas, but this year we spent Christmas Eve with Josh's family and Christmas Day with my family.  Erik was down from Seattle, so we were all able to be together!  What a fun & full house--so many excited kids (and adults!). 
Oldest & youngest
Pile o'cousins!
new hats
I love the gift-opening expressions!
Starting off the "grown-up" gift exchange...
Josh drew Katrina's name and he made a decorative giant ruler and pencil for her. (:
the girls
Oh BOY!  The grand finale gift from Memaw & Papa was Lazer Tag guns for all the boys!
Tate's gift from M&P was a drum kit--that has been in the family for several of the grandkids to use.  It's Tate's turn now!

Serious little drummer boy.
Go, Tate!

Christmas Morning

Christmas Day 2012
Christmas morning at our house started with homemade cinnamon rolls.  Yummy!  The mama "elf" had to taste one to make sure they were ready. (;
The boys could hardly wait to start opening their presents!  I love Tate's face in this picture!
Matching jammies, sleepy faces, & messy hair (;
Ronan dreamed of Nike for Christmas--Socks & shoes for our sporty boy.
So excited for his red Nike shoes
Running shorts for me
Ronan got a Green Machine!
Griffin got an electric scooter!
Trying 'em out

Christmas Eve

December 24, 2012~ We celebrated Christmas with all of Josh's family on Christmas Eve...and what a fun & full night it was!  Lots of busyness with nine kids, but it was perfect.  We are always so thankful that we can all be together!
The Cousins!
