Christmas with the boys!

Chillin' with the Elggren Cousins

Matching Christmas PJs a tradition in our family.

Since Ben has become a teenager he makes this face in lots of pictures taken of him. Jeffrey the idolizing younger brother has now started to copy him. I guess we'll just have to take candids from now on. At least until this phase is over :)
