Well the holidays are here and gone.  I can't believe how fast it all goes.  We had a wonderful time with each of our families.  The boys love hanging with their cousins & seeing their Grandparent's.  I got to met my twin sister's boyfriend for the first time- didn't get a picture of him I guess-next year :) He was super nice and I'm so happy for her. We ate way to much food on each side, more cookies & more presents.  We are so blessed with having family all around us to spend the holidays with!  I hope every one had a great Christmas.  Now on to the next year....

Merry Christmas every one!  I can't believe that the holidays came so fast.  It seems the years go faster and faster!  Here was how our families Christmas started.  Mom didn't have to work- which is always a good start!  We made cookies, left reindeer food out, open presents & more presents.  We stayed in our comfy clothes, watched Christmas movies with hot chocolate, built lot's of Lego sets & played board games.  It has been a wonderful 2 days at home together.  Next we get to celebrate with the cousins, aunts, uncles & grandparent's!

Cannoli

Brian skipped out of work early the other day and brought us out to lunch. (sorry Axel you were at school) We went to our most favorite place- Buca di beppo.  We love Italian food. It's so much more fun bringing the kids out now that they actually eat :)  Thanks for the lunch date Brian- we all ate way too much.  We even tried cannoli's for the first time. (super yummy)
