NYE at Sunda

We met our friends Lauren,  Justin & Mac at Sunda for NYE.  We had a 5 course dinner that lasted more than 4 hours.  It was so much food we ended up taking our main course home.  They had lots of party favors (hats, tiaras, beads, noisemakers, etc).  We had a great night and had fun ringing in 2013 with some great friends.

Happy New Year!

Christmas

We woke up this morning to a white Christmas.  I think there was only a 30% chance so it was definitely a Christmas miracle (as someone in family said).  I made homemade crepes with berries and powdered sugar for breakfast.  

After breakfast we listened to Christmas music and opened presents.  This year we didn't go to Charleston to visit my cousins so it felt really weird.  My Mom is in town so we have had a lot of fun with her.  Julia and Ethan really wanted to spend Christmas day at home since they have always been out of town.  I will admit it was nice to wake up Christmas day at home, but I really missed my other family.

We hung out all day watching movies and eating appetizers.  For dinner we had a turkey, stuffing, green bean casserole and mashed potatoes.  After dinner we played Blokus that my brother Bryan and his girlfriend Lauren gave us for Christmas.  We had a blast playing the game!

Hope everyone had a Merry Christmas!!  Lots of love!!









Zoey & Bella have matching dresses of course!

Ethan got sweatpants, shirts, a sweater, game for his xbox, money and gift cards.

Craig and the kids got me 3 charms for my Pandora bracelet (my friends Phil and Kat got the bracelet for me for my birthday) and I loved them!  I also got a purse, perfume, yoga mat, beach bag, computer case, sandals and gift cards.  Craig got sweaters, Jawbone speaker and lots of gift cards.

Christmas Eve Eve

My brother Bryan, his girlfriend Lauren and her son Aidan came Sat night and stayed until Sun.  We had fun hanging out with them and wished they could stay longer.  Aidan loved playing with Ethan (he called him Ethy), Tommy (Ethan's friend) and Julia.  We opened presents and listened to Christmas music and had fun helping Aidan with his new toys.  We loved the remote control car, soccer ball, book and games.

Merry Christmas Eve Eve to everyone!

Aidan, Lauren and Bryan
