Yes, it was SOOO much fun to have my family up in the snow at our house.
Yes, they were ALL here (26 of us)!
No, there were no fights (among the adults that is!)
Yes, there were a couple of pounds gained from all of the good food
Yes, a couple of people got sick
Yes, we're sad they're gone
and finally...
NO, we are not accepting visitors at this time!!! :)

I'm sure it took forever! Super cute. Glad you were able to be with your family.
How in the heck did you do all of those collages? That is so cute!
No - we will not be visiting anytime soon and Yes - we had the best time at your house!
Love ya!
YAY! You disappeared and I've missed you! And wait a second, when you said, "Emily come stay at my house." Did you really mean, "Emily you can't come stay at my house."??? Because I was totally planning on crashing at your place this weekend... ha ha. That is a LOT of visitors! All your collages turned out so cute, love them, love the pictures.
And HOLY HAIR CLAIRE! When did she get so much hair??? SO CUTE
Meg---how fun with EVERYONE!!! I loved seeing all the fun pictures. You do have a darling family and I love keeping tabs on you!!! I really did open all of your collages...since I'm still laid up!!! Thanks for giving me something fun to do!:)
MEghan I LOVE this whole post!! The best comment was NO we are not accepting any visitors at this time!! And even thought you said this took soo long, can you just tell me how you did it?? I think I might have to copy if you don't care!! Thanks again for such a crazy, amazing and fun time that my family will always treasure!! Love you Meg!!
26! Wow! I love the family pictures.
That is total madness. I don't know if I could have handled all those kids in my brand new house especially making candy houses, decorating cookies and syrupy pancakes. Oh, all the little dirty, sticky hands. Let's see, 26 people equals 260 dirty fingers on walls and furniture. FUN! Did you even get sleep? It looked like crazy fun.
that was so cute meghan, i almost cried becuase I want to be back there right now doing that exact same thing!!!! I'm so grateful that you had that huge house to fit us all! I had the best time EVER!!!! Ilove you and can't wait to see you soon!
Wow, that was an impressive post! I also want to know how you did the collages! Looks like a really fun Christmas. You and your sisters are all so cute.
Oh, and my mother-in-law got that sled from FAO Schwarz, I believe. It's so great for little kids, you can strap them in, and they're totally secure.
WOW! nice post, I love the pictures. How cool are those collages, how did you do that? Your family is amazing! I loved getting to know them a little better. Not to mention how gorgeous you all are! Your mom is the nicest lady I have ever met. Jonny was telling me that everyone who met her LOVED her back in college, and I can totally see why.
love ya!
Looks & sounds like you had a crazy but fun Holiday. How fun to have so much family at once!
so cute meggy! thanks again for having all of us...i know it wasn't easy! but it was so much fun...love you
Totally worth the 3 1/2 hours. It looks great. I love the scarfs. Was that planned?
Heck ya that took forever. Where did you do the collages? It all looks insanely fun. What a darling family!
It looks like you had an amazing Christmas with the fam. Hopefully we can make it up there sooner than later. Love your new header that's such a great picture!!
AMAZING. love the collages, and Claire has THE cutest little cheeser smile on Christmas morning - I'm dying! so cute! what a lot of crazy and wonderful chaos - so glad you lived to tell the tale.
Meggie.........that is the most amazing post I have ever seen. I can't believe you did all those collages.......they are beautiful!! I want prints of all of them. Have you figured out how to do that? What a wonderful, wonderful time we all had.......that was an unforgettable Christmas that we will always remember and cherish! Thank you and Mark soooo much for allowing us to make it such! You're one amazing little homemaker, mommy, decorator, baker........I could go on and on. Love you my Megs! x0x0
Ok your mom's comment ahead of me made me cry!! Ha. I love all the pictures. They are awesome!! What I want to know is how on EARTH did you fit the whole Riding clan in your house????!!!
I missed you at the family Christmas party this year, but now I know what you were up to! How fun! I can't believe you fit your whole family in your house. It must be HUGE. I need to come up and see it. I miss you!!!
Your family is beautiful--all of you :)
Happy New Year!
