Christmas 2009

We kicked off the Holiday parties at Greg's cousin Tony's New house for a Christmas Eve get together. Tony and his family put together a few different types of soups and sandwiches. We hung out for a few hours with friends and family. Of course I may have had one to many Christmas treats;) I experimented this year and made Andes mint chocolate chip cookies. I'm a big fan;) For Christmas our Neighbourhood just went all out for lights! I felt like every house was a Griswold house!Greg and I were able to spend Christmas morning together. Like every year we felt like kids opening our gifts. I really enjoy the "guessing" game, since a lot of times you will find rocks or something crazy to throw you off track in the box:) Greg really spoiled me this year. I am in love with the beautiful necklace he bought. He has such good taste:) And I was VERY surprised:) We were very thankful for our family and friends and their thoughtfulness. We wish we could of been there to share the day with them but we were happy to at least be able to talk on Skype. We chatted with my brother in Israel.We found out he had received our Christmas package a few days before, we were worried it wouldn't show up in time. He said he was the only guy that had gifts to open. I miss him so much but I know he is doing what he loves:) Later Christmas day we made Ham and all the traditional items. We relaxed on the couch with Abby until we began the Martini Christmas. Chocolate martinis for Mara and I;) We played a few games and really had a relaxing evening. We hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas!
