Christmas Montage

Merry Christmas everyone!!!
We hope you had a wonderful holiday with friends and family. We spent the afternoon cooking and preparing for a yummy Christmas dinner for 19 people. I know that sounds like a lot but it meant the world to us to have those who don't have family in the area spend Christmas with us! Tony invited a few of his teammates, their sweethearts, brothers, Hannah's family, etc. over to share holiday dinner with us. We couldn't bare the thought of anyone spending the holidays alone, so the more the merrier! My family did an amazing job getting all the food prepared. We had tasty appetizers, ham, turkey, sweet potatoes (thanks Rachel!), green bean casserole, gravy, mashed potatoes, stuffing, rolls, and enough desserts to send us all into sugar shock!

Here is a pic of the whole group! It was cozy quarters in our apartment but we all had a ton of fun. 
Addie had a ball yesterday! She played with Hannah and her sisters, then the guys were playing with the balloons so Addie bounced around with them for awhile. We even did a "choo choo soul" number to dance for everyone, however she was a little shy. 

For Christmas, my husband surprised me with my very own Mac Laptop. It is the perfect gift and now he can have his back! (I figured out how to use the iphoto program and I love it!) I spoiled Tony with a new HD video camcorder with the idea that he could record the girls first moments together, not to mention ballet recitals, birthday parties, etc. He had a lot of fun recording our first Christmas together as a family of 4. So, using both of our Christmas presents, we put together this little Christmas montage for friends and family. Enjoy!
