1st Christmas

Andy has been off all week and was able to go snowboarding, run errands, clean up his office at work as Sarah was able to come during the day, as I had to work Monday - Wednesday. We went to Thai Basil for dinner on Christmas Eve with Avery and Ryan. They did pretty well. We were actually there last Christmas Eve when Avery and Ryan were in my belly! How things have changed! We enjoyed Sour Cream Coffee Cake for breakfast which was a tradition at my parent's house growing up. They started on their stockings a few gifts, then it was time for breakfast, and then a morning nap, and then more presents. We had a nice Christmas day and got all their toys put together so they could play with those! I made Christmas dinner which included pecan crusted chicken, sweet potato casserole, and a green bean casserole. It was good!
