Courtney and Paul came to visit!

Courtney, Paul and Austen came to visit us! Paul had a conference in D.C. so they came a little early to hangout with us. We did a lot of fun things while they were here: Reading Terminal Market, Independence Hall, D.C., and a Greek Fair. We were trying to convince Paul to come to the University of Pennsylvania :). The last time I saw Austen was in January and it's crazy how much he has grown! He's one of the cutest kids I have every seen and it was fun to play with him and of course see Courtney and Paul. I definitely miss all of them already.

The Greek Festival had the best gyros I have every had! We all argued about how to pronounce a gyro, but we figured it out and I was right :)

White Elephant Party

We had our annual white elephant party at Todd and Megan's house this year. Todd made all the food this year and it was delicious! We started out with mussels sauteed in garlic parsley butter, then we had a fabulous seafood pasta dish, then we finished with Lamb, mashed potatoes and salad. 

I made these different types of cookies

Here are all of the presents :)

Family Time!

Since we had to move out of our apartment at the beginning of December, we have been living at my parents house the last couple of weeks. We have also been lucky to have Courtney, Paul, Shelby and little Austin all living there as well! Needless to say it has been a party and here are some things we have been doing since we have been here:

We played bunco white elephant! Shelby got a bow-and-arrow, Dan got a Nerf Football, mom got a penguin cake mold, Dad got Bee's Hand Salve, Paul got a fishing game, Courtney got a knife, and I got 2 thermal cups.

 Yes, my mom did buy these blanket snuggie like things for us for Christmas and we danced in them! I think we look pretty good. The color of my blanket may have me looking like a fat naked person though....

 Dan and I were in charge of setting up and cooking everything for Christmas Eve. We made Salmon Wellington, asparagus, sweet potatoes, mashed potatoes, rolls, and salad. It was pretty delicious if I do say so myself.

Family Pictures

I love having two different families now because we get to have lots of family pictures to choose from :)
