This year, we affectionately called our gathering "Mass Chaos" -- although it turned out to be much less chaotic than previous years :) With 10 kids in one house it is bound to be noisy, but since most are old enough now to play Wii and get their own food, it has become much easier on the adults :)
Opening gifts - probably my favorite part :)
I don't really have any pics of my kids, but this was a cute one of Silas :)
We let Reagan stay up until 11pm to hang out with all the kids and then woke her up the next morning to go swimming at Sarah and Mike's hotel... I don't know who had the better time - Reagan (she's the one in the little circle float) or Joel who had boys to goof off with and toss around... :)
We brought the kids home after swimming for lunch and a rest time before heading to Grandma & Grandpa's house for the Ridder Christmas gathering. Reagan was going to read books in her bed, but instead decided to "hide" from us under her desk in her room. This is how we found her:

I kind of felt that way too by the time we got home from swimming... =)
