Experiencing the giddy thrills of the bellman's cart is a highlight at any hotel.
Suki and Grace play with Loralei, Lucas and Nelo at the big cousin get together.
Zithembe comes in to see what all of the fuss is in his room. He was so great about sharing his toys with this great influx of children.
Dina adjusts Kate's reindeer antlers.
Dawn hugs Kate and Gigi.
Kate and Uncle Vincent.
Uncle Jeff with Kate and Calynn.
Kate, Loralei, Lucas, Suki and Zithembe listen to Aunt Donna's story.
Calynn, Thabi and Grace revel in the chaos of Zithembe's room.
Kate gives Grandma a hug.
Aunt Dina holds Liam as Kate and Suki look on.
We are so valiant in our attempts at the group shot -- here are some of the best that I got. From left to right: Suki, Gigi, Thabi, Lucas, Kate, Sibonelo, Zithembe, Grace, Lorelei and Calynn.
I love how Zithembe just goes ahead and innocently uses Kate and Grace as little hand holds as he tries to flee this photo shoot.
The grown up cousins: Dawn, me, April and Vin, Amy and Melissa in the front.
Kate just loved this car!
My grandmother above her sisters Julia and Grace, after whom our own little Grace was named.
Lorelei, Suki and Gigi had such a sweet time together out on the porch.
Incredibly, there is a Quincy doll. Grace was delighted to discover him!
April, Suki and David chat on the couch.
Oh ho, now this is a good one. Grandma wanted a shot with the children and grandchildren present. I was holding Liam at the moment of the photo round up, so we all just sat with the ones we had.
It was going pretty well, with everyone smiling and laughing (well, not so much Calynn, but you get the idea).
But then, David somehow snapped the moment just after Liam spat up on me.
It certainly wasn't the first time I've been spit up on, so we just soldiered on.
What a silly time.
David tries the monkey-in-a-tree maneuver with Liam.
Opening gifts over at Grandma's house.
Trying on their new mittens.
Grace was thrilled to have her new States puzzle.
And Suki was so happy with her Garanimals game.
Kate finishes up her nap.
After she woke up, she admired her new top.
Showing her penguin to Grandma.
Looking at Grandma's Christmas village.
Off to fulfill one of David's lifelong dreams: dining at the local diner.
