Christmas 2011 has come and gone. It was a whirlwind! This year we stayed at home in San Francisco, got a tree and had a small intimate family Christmas. Emma, husband and I made sugar cookies to give away. For our Christmas lunch, I made ham, stuffing, mashed potatoes, braised balsamic brussel sprouts (these are so good!) and the grown ups had a nice bottle of wine. We visited friends for dinner, then, I went back to work (yes, another Christmas with work, year end sucks, people, at least in terms of work anyway).
Life is crazy with two, like I mentioned above, work is going full on, no holds barred. Ethan is growing into quite the little chunk, and Emma is finally starting to get along with her little brother.
This year, we said a little prayer over our meal, thanking God for what we have and how blessed we are, and wishing that everyone can have peace and love for the holiday season.
