Holiday Happenings

How memorable the holiday season was this year having Alexis to share it with! In fact, Lexi's big debut 10 days early allowed her to be with us for her daddy's favorite day. Hosting our family, complete with our new baby girl, for the first time in this house made Daddy's favorite holiday even more special. Nothing beats a day dedicated to food, wine and most important, family. With Alexis here, we couldn't help but count our blessings.

Home to New Jersey for Christmas! Lexi's first road trip was to Sparta and Chester to celebrate with family and friends. While she had no interest in Santa or her gifts this year and won't understand for years to come the true meaning behind this celebration, we all felt so thankful that our little peanut was here to share in the merriment. Alexis slept like a champ on the way home, resigned peacefully to being passed from person to person and reminded us that the best and most cherished gifts cannot be purchased in any store.

I hope Uncle John doesn't confuse me with the 
Cornish Hen he's having for dinner!
