Kate's Family for Christmas

Typically every year at Christmas we spend time with my parents and my family. I grew up having big holiday festivities and I loved it. I really want that for my boys. We typically do the traditional holiday food for Thanksgiving and then do Mexican or Italian food for Christmas.

This year we got together on Christmas Eve for lunch and we had Lasagna, Garlic Bread, Pumpkin Pie, and Vanilla Ice-Cream. It was super easy and not stressful at all - which was fantastic. My parents, Christopher, Stephen, Linda, Tiffany and Courtney all came over. It was fun and nice to hang out with family.

Here's my brother, Christopher, playing with the kids. Will, Andy, Courtney (my niece Tiffany's daughter), and Ben. They had a great time with Uncle Christopher and enjoyed him pushing them around on the car. Typically he's outside on the trampoline with them - but it was a really bitter cold, winter, snowey day - so we played inside.

We took my traditional picture in front of the fireplace to mark the occassion.
