Christmas and Beyond...

Christmas morning was spent with my family at Mom and Dad's house. Mom made a delish breakfast...as always...cinnamon rolls, sausage balls, fruit salad, bacon, scrambled eggs, hot chocolate, and coffee. YUM! Then it was off to presents...

Matt waking us up with some morning tunes...

Me and Pops...

"Can we get to presents already?! GEEZ!"

Matt always has the best wrapping...haha!

Then off to the Hewitts for Christmas with them! We did presents...then stockings...then Grandpa and Grandma Belbusti came over with some delish appetizers before we all sat down to eat some amazing lasagna! Good times all around!

STOCKINGS!

To keep the Christmas spirit alive and well...we waited until the 28th to celebrate Christmas with the Blacks. I took over the kitchen and made my first meal for a "family gathering!" EEK! Thankfully, it wasn't anything to difficult...just chili...which is quick and easy. We had so much fun with our fab cousins...we ate...played "The Patrick Game"...opened gifts....and just hung out!

Allison, she's gorgeous!

Andrew and Em...Em showing off her bling!

Katie and "Bob"...hee hee

Keegers...too cute!

And finally, after the New Year, we headed up to Maryland for Jon & Jess's basketball games at Covenant Life. It was such a fun trip...so many people from church were there...it was a blast to hang with everyone! We all stayed the night at a sweet hotel and after all the games we headed into downtown DC to see some sights! It was FREEZING...but fun!

And finally...waiting to get on the Metro to head into DC...
