Truly Blessed Christmas

So this Christmas was a tiny bit different then many other years. For one thing due to the plans of everyone surrounding me there wasn't much decorating. And we didn't do any presents.

But my little brother and his wife flew in from WY for a bit, and my dad came down from WA for a few days. Christmas morning they all came to my house and we made breakfast together and spent the morning just enjoying each other's company! Then my mama made her traditional lasagna (we are Italian and don't over-do the turkey thing) and we ate lunch at my Aunt & Uncle's house.


Just after lunch the Adam's family piled into cars and drove to the park for a family photo opportunity. It was FREEZING, but we made it quick and it was fun! Then time for dessert and off to another one of my Auntie's for the family dessert gathering! After we were all sufficiently supplied with sugar we headed for the Movie Theater for a Christmas Flick!
All in all an amazing day! One to be truly grateful for....Especially now that life is going to change alot. My parent's move to WA...started Thursday.
I hope you all had a wonderful day as well, and found many things to be truly grateful for in your lives!!

"Holiday Fever"

So i think i have Holiday Fever. Ever heard of it?
It's symptoms include: not able to focus on work, a desire to travel around with friends and play all the time.
It was Thanksgiving that did it. Having time off and days to play...amazing!
Now it's time for a healthy dose of reality to combat this Holiday Fever. And yet Christmas is still just around the corner. I am thankful for that!


I made my very first ever Fruit Pizza last night!
What do you think?
