Lunch with Elanne

Bryan's mom came over for Christmas lunch... I burned the Tomato soup by accident... I still can't believe they both ate it saying it taste fine.... I didnt even finish mine!Me and Elanne

Christmas Morning

Christmas morning at our house... it was kind of exciting seeing all the presents that were there for just the 2 of us... this is my first Christmas morning spent without my family! I think this was Bryan's favorite Christmas gift... his new Xbox360
A really cool CD holder given to Bryan from his mom and sister Sarah
My new spice rack from Bryan (gotta love that costco!) I got alot of cooking stuff for xmas... its great! Over all we ended up getting a new toaster, waffle iron, saute pan, lots of utensils and more bakeware!
Surrounded!

Christmas Eve with Bryan's Family

Bryan and I had Christmas Eve dinner at Joan's with the family... it was great to see everyone! Bryan's sisters Lorissa and Sarah... we finally got a pic everyone was happy with I think!
After the dinner Bryan and I stopped by his brother John's place for a visit!

Count Down to Christmas....

Bryan and I had our very first Open House for Christmas this past friday night! It was alot of fun and I can't believe how many people showed up! Thanks to everyone who came, it was a great time... maybe we will do it again next year! I did some baking for the party... my first batch wasn't that great... who knew that 1/4 cup of ginger would be too much??!
Wrapping presents... this has been an endless task...
Nap time!
A visit with Nana... Mom brought her Christmas Cards from the family!

Friday Night with Bryan & Holly

Computer central... or our kitchen table? haha....

Here comes Christmas

We finished decorating the Christmas tree today... it was quite nice with all the snow outside, it actually felt like christmas! Thanks to mom for finding this great free tree and then donating the decorations to go on it!

Unfortunately due to all the snow today our dinner plans to with Bryan's family (John, Stephanie, Jeremy, Joan, Lorissa & Ali) had to be cancelled... I think John thought we were bailing on him... haha, here is the cake I made to prove that we werent!! :)
