Over the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays I was lucky enough to get to see my extended family on my mom's side. Unfortunately living far away from one another we do not get to see one another often and the holidays makes for a good "excuse" to get together. The first group of pictures is from the Friday after Thanksgiving getting together with my Aunt Kate and cousins Libby & Emily who live on the east coast. It is always fun to see them and catch up over a yummy lunch; it was also a great way to start off the Christmas season by picking out ornaments at Macy's.

Our Christmas Eve tradition has always been to go to my Mama Sue's house for dinner. The past 3 years since she has been in assisted living we have gotten together on Christmas Eve at Scott's (a yummy seafood restaurant) in Walnut Creek, we even get seated at the same table. Not having my grandparents house to go to anymore definitely makes things different but overall it is good to just get the family together and celebrate Christmas over a delicious meal! Here are some pictures from this years festivities.
