Owen's First Months

~Owen~

I have been so bad about posting pictures of this little guy! My phone is full of them, so I thought I would finally share them here :)

We love you, buddy!

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!! (Siobhan)

~Merry Christmas and Happy New Year~

We had such a blessed holiday season and hope your family did as well! Wonderful meals with friends and family, a candlelight Christmas Eve service, amazing Christmas light displays, and fun holiday traditions are just a few of the things that made this season so special...

 Christmas Day was a balmy 70 degrees, so we went out to the park as a family and flew the boys' new kites and enjoyed the gorgeous "summer" weather!

Christmas Cookies!

On Christmas we always go to a buffet as a family, but on New Years we love to stay home and cook some yummy appetizers! Nothing we made looked particularly appetizing, but it all tasted good!!

 Brie Apple and Honey Crostini

 Cheddar Pierogies with Caramelized Onion and Bacon

 Goat Cheese Stuffed Bacon Wrapped Dates with Rosemary Honey

We also made Easy Summer Herb and Chickpea Chopped Salad with Goat Cheese, Grilled Achiote Shrimp, Roasted Brussel Sprouts with Lemon Garlic Aioli,and Layered Zebra Mousse Cake!

Alabama even gave us the present of some snow! The kids were so excited.

 They made this snowman, and I was incredibly impressed until I realized its actual size...

Connor made a little snow baby as a buddy for Owen!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
