Belated Christmas Greetings!

Merry Christmas! I'm a little behind in posting! Or actually, I'm just celebrating the whole advent season so I'm right on time! We're in the middle of the 12 days of Christmas leading up to the celebration of Epiphany (when the wise men traditionally show up to see baby Jesus).

On Dec.15th, we went to the Nutcracker ballet with our moms after eating out at a great Thai restaurant.


Christmas Eve was spent with Ryan's extended family (34 people) near Seattle. On Christmas morning we went to my mom's for our traditional sausage casserole and cheese grits breakfast.


Afterwards we opened presents, and in the evening we had dinner and celebrated my grandmother's 86th birthday, which is on Christmas.
