Merry Christmas!!

My whole family got together for Christmas this year and we had a delicious feast to celebrate. Our spirits were high and we had a wonderful evening.

Here is grandma with the newest member of the family, little Sophia.

Katie playing with Auntie Tracey.

There was a veggie platter to munch on while we waited for the main attraction.

There were also caesar salad deviled eggs.

Homemade kale chips.

And of course we had to have sangria to put everyone in the holiday mood.

Some fun outside before the feast.

The kids loved feeding Dana her treats and playing ball with her.

Katie with Auntie Shirley and Auntie Tracey.

Is David ready for baby number 3?

Am I?

The Lu family.

Not to be confused with the Liu family.

Grandpa with 3 of his grandkids. Where is Max?

Can you just imagine all the trouble these kids will cause in a couple of years?

And here is the feast. To start off the feast we celebrated with a $300 bottle of wine!

My mom's yummy crab soup.

Uncle Alec's famous crab.

A roasted vegetable platter.

Johny's prime rib.

A toast to a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!

And of course we had to have dessert! Fresh baked apple and pumpkin pie.

The chaos that ensued when gifts were brought out.

Merry Christmas Eve!

We spent Christmas eve with David's family. 

Here is Justin with Yi Po and his Christmas gifts.

Katie's 4th Birthday

Our little baby girl is four years old already! I can remember the day she was born and turned our lives upside down. And here she is four years later all independent and trying to do the hula hoop.

Some pre-party fun with Grandma and Uncle Andy.

The cake: (Katie absolutely insisted on a mermaid cake. She even went around telling my sisters that she was getting a mermaid cake for her birthday without our knowing. So of course we had to go out and buy one for her.)

Auntie Tracey is Finally Legal!

Auntie Tracey finally turned 21 and can drink legally now. We took her to Yard House to celebrate.

Here she is drinking her Black Velvet beer.

We both got the seared ahi steak sandwich. It was so yummy!

The kids split a grilled cheese sandwich.

David got the surf & turf burger.

The kids meal comes with a free sundae!
