New Year's Day with the Brown's

Mommy and Grandma Hewens come from a huge family and today was my first big get-together. I was a little freaked out at first by all the noise and all the new faces, but after a little bit, I warmed right up to everyone and had a great time!

Everyone was so shocked when in walked Aunt Sharon and Uncle Pat from Edmonton. No one knew they were coming. It was a great surprise!

Uncle Pat is in the red shirt, look how surprised Great Grandma Brown looks!

I needed a little nap, it was exhausting trying to remember everyone's name!

Apparently daddy needed a nap too!

Great Grandpa is mommy's Grandpa? Wow, that's neat!

I love you Great Grandpa!

Mommy says that it's been a long time since the family's had so many toddlers and babies all at once and she wanted to get a picture.

(Victoria and Liberty may be mixed up, mommy has a hard time telling them apart!)

Note from Mommy ~ This picture took about 7 trys with a whole lot of people calling names and re-seating the kids....my hat goes off to child photographers!
