Christmas Memories and Happy New Year!

Well, I am back from a wonderful Christmas vacation in Baltimore with family. Needless to say, Christmas went much better than Thanksgiving. Andrew and I came away with minor colds and Ben was unscathed! I managed to snap a few good pictures. Of course, none of me.....I have to make an effort to do that next time.

Here is a picture of my hubby fixing a cocktail before Christmas Eve Dinner. Isn't he cute?

This is my BIL, Matt, with my MIL. He got her a beautiful dish from a fair trade boutique. Just beautiful.

One of Ben's favorite toys from Santa-Nana. The Saxoflute rocks!!!

Oh...and Santa-Matt did not forget Sam this year! Sonny-X...eat your heart out!

Isn't this the most adorable photo. This is my best friend's daughter, Nicole. She is 5 years old and such a sweet little girl. She spent her entire visit watching after Ben. Here, they are holding hands while watching Elmo. I could just squeeze them both.

We had a lovely vacation and are looking forward to ringing in the New Year tonight. I wish everyone a peaceful New Year. Look for a special New Year's Sale at the Kitchen soon!

Peace,
Chef

I'm so glad that Christmas was better for you, no one deserves the Thanksgiving you had! Great pictures but I have to agree, the one with Ben and Nicole is just too precious!
