I'm a little back logged with holiday pictures, so now this skirt is full with presents. :)
Yesterday was spent with cousins and uncles. Our family has grown so much this past year.
To see 3 babies under a year and a 2 and a 5 year old…nothing sweeter.
Highlights from yesterday:
- Cora (5) and Aidan (2) sitting in the chair together, "I'm holding Aidan for case he gets scared."
- I would publicly like to thank cousin Nick and my Cousin in Law, Shannon for the baby time they shared Logan with me for. He's THE happiest baby I know. HAPPIEST! Which in turn, made me the happiest cousin you'll ever know. :)
- I asked Aidan if I could sit next to him to which he responded, "Uh, huh." Loves.
- And Nana Ruth, at 89 1/2 managed to survive the day - tired, but just joyful for our family.

It's 11am and my mother is STILL sleeping. Way to go, Christmas Day! :)
I was up at 7am preparing the beef tips in a cherry wine sauce for dinner tonight (crock pot).
Along with the beef, we'll feast on Pork Medallions in a gorgonzola cream sauce, Meatballs, and Crab Cakes. Yumm Yumm!
I've also got to make some Peppermint Swirl Cupcakes (Recipe Here:
Mindika Moments)
and I'm trying to find my marbles! :)
To pull off this pinterest gem:
Wherever you are, with whatever you have, with whomever you're celebrating with, I hope you find the reason for the season all around you and may you be filled with the joy of his spirit all Christmas long.
