Tschoepe Family Christmas

It's hard to believe that another Christmas has already come and gone! This year, as with every year, we gathered with the Tschoepe family (Brian's mother's side of the family) at Oma's house on Christmas day to celebrate. It's always a fun time catching up with everyone and we always have fun with the annual traditions: generation gift exchanges, family photos, soup and tamales. Joey was in top form showing off all his party tricks - our little politician worked the room shaking hands with everyone and he also showed off his surprise face, his sad face and his sleepy face. And sweet little Owen was introduced to the family, especially all of his great aunts who took turns holding him all day. We're already looking forward to next Christmas!
