What a blessed holiday season we had! Uncle Dan and Aunt Stephanie were in town for almost two weeks so we enjoyed spending as much time with them as we could.  We found out we will have a 'West Coast Cousin' coming in July!  Yea!  We started off our Christmas week with a special family night out to dinner at Maggiano's.  We had our Christmas Eve celebration at Keith's Mom's house.  Then Christmas morning we woke up, went to 8:30 Mass and headed over to my parents' house for the day.  On Sunday us 'girls' went to see the Rockettes and had a great time!  Then we celebrated New Year's Eve at Dawn and John's.  New Year's Day we had brunch with Keith's family.  So much fun, and so many people we are thankful to have in our lives.  It is sad to take down all of the decorations because it reminds us of Christmases past and makes us excited to think of Christmases to come.  Keith and I didn't realize how special it would be to combine our own families' holiday traditions into what now will be OUR own special Christmas traditions for our family.   It truly was a very special 1st Christmas with our little Mia!

We hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and wish a healthy and happy New Year to you!  Sorry our Christmas cards were so late... lesson learned for next year.

What great pictures! I feel like I was present for the parties! It looks as if Mia wanted to say a few words on a few of those pictures! It's too bad she is not eating well! She looks like I did on my baby pictures!!!

Enjoy a blessed and peacefilled New Year and keep the pictured coming!

Love and prayers,Aunt Helen
