Merry Christmas!
January 3, 2009It has been awhile since I posted, but I have lots to come your way. We spent our Christmas and New Years with family and friends and are now back to get ready for ’09! Before the Christmas pics are a few of our trip to get our puppy Sanders. Here is a pic of Chester in the car on the way to get his new sibling…
Getting acquainted on the way home. Sanders had 5 brothers and sisters, so if you are interested in a pup, let me know!
His first bath. Josh gave him a bath while I took pics!
A little nap after a long first day with the Elliott’s!
Love this! So, so cute!
Our friends came over to watch the Steeler game and meet the new addition! They actually have a new addition as well….coming in July! They are pregnant with their first kiddo! So exciting!
Here are a few photos from our trip to my hometown, McKean. We headed there on the evening of the 23rd, so that we would be there bright and early on Christmas Eve, but it took us 12 hours to get there! We left at 6:45 pm on the 23rd and arrived at 7am on the 24th! It actually only takes about 5 1/2 hours but we got caught in a terrible ice storm.ÂÂ
Here are 2 of my nephews Ethan and Hayden waiting to open presents…. 
They look so thrilled!ÂÂ
They look so thrilled! 
They perked up a little bit!
Brennan opening gifts…
Hayden opening gifts. He was soooo excited about everything he opened. It was so cute!
Venom…. from Spiderman…
Hanging out and playing games. My favorite part of the day!
The littlest nephew, Ryan.  Mmmmm….Cookie!
On Christmas Eve, we always go to my Uncle Frank’s and celebrate. We have dinner and then Santa comes! Here are all of my nieces and nephews (and sister Amber) on Santa’s lap! Last year Josh was recruited to be Santa because he was the new guy in the fam, but this year he got lucky and got out of it. I also got the family fruitcake….. I should take a picture of it. It has been passed on for about 10+ years!ÂÂ
More to come! We left my hometown on Christmas Day and Josh’s family came to our house the next day and stayed until the 30th…. so I have photos to share from their visit. We also went to Atlanta for New Years on the 31st and got back yesterday so I have photos to share from Atlanta and the Chick-Fil-A-Bowl as well!!!
Happy New Year!
