Yeah yeah yeah. I couldn't even take five minutes to wish you guys a Merry Christmas on the day itself. Or even Happy Boxing Day yesterday. And forget about the wishing you well on Christmas Eve. Good thing this is just for fun! Anyway...
Back on December 18th my parents, brother, husband and I went to Catbird Seat for dinner. I could be blase and just say "cross that off the bucket list" but that wouldn't be a true expression of my feelings. The experience was beyond amazing and sharing it with my (able to eat real food) loved ones was what made it so. It deserves a post by itself so I'm going to try and get to that before year's end. (Deadlines are fun, aren't they?)
Then on the 20th, the three of us headed up to KY for the weekend to celebrate.
Someone helped us pack the suitcases...
Someone also kept borrowing K's hat to wear during the birthday party (yes we are all in our pjs - it is Winter Solstice!)
And we got a decent picture of the family.
He was allowed to unwrap one present...what did we do to make you mad Granny Rita?
Yes, it talks, it sings, it makes all sorts of noise.
And when we got home, someone helped unpack...
There goes week 45! I'd like to get a Christmas eve/day post up next. And the restaurant review as well as a cookbook review. Not to mention my Project Life pages... Don't hold your breath though. Last night little man figured out clapping and I spent more time than I'd like to admit watching him joyfully clap clap clap.
