Parker's with Family

I was so glad I got another day to spend time with my whole family. It was nice just to sit down and eat lunch with them. I really miss seeing my cousins! It is a very very rare moment in time when we all can get together...it was awesome:)

The Cousins & Sibling...

The whole crew with Ciara (Daniel's girlfriend).

The whole crew with Chris...we switched it up:) I could actually easily add Ciara to this photo and we'd be on big happy family!!!

Aren't they a cute couple?!?!

Mema & Papa & their kids...

Love it!

Mother & Daughter...aka Grace & Sharon

Matthew & I

I love Matthew, but sometimes he can make some silly faces:)

I can't have a family even without taking a picture of Grace and I!

and of course Chris and I.....


Daniel & I

Christmas Day

Chris came over that morning and we opened presents. He seems thrilled about the tie (I think it's just he doesn't want his picture taken)!







Chris had to head home and spend some time with his family. Grace, myself, mom and Sharon went to the movies. Afterwards we headed to mema and papa's house for dinner.




It's always great to see Daniel and Matthew (cousins)!
Matthew opening some gifts his dad (Uncle Mark) and dad's wife brought over for them.


Daniel....

We also celebrate Mema & Papa's Anniversary over Christmas...
Daniel's girlfriend, Ciara, got to get in on the present action also!

My grandparents are awesome!

Christmas Eve

I'm so glad to FINALLY get some blogging done!!!

Christmas was a lot different this year. We threw most of our traditions out the door, which was kind of nice to do something different this year. Usually we all eat dinner over at moms or memas and then we open presents.

This year mom, Kevin and I went over to the Adams house. I had to work that day, but I got off at 12pm.
It was a beautiful day, so I took a few shots outdoors before I began to bake!









I found some great recipes (allrecipes.com) and was very excited to get the opportunity to bake:)

Red Velvet Cupcakes With homemade fluffy cream cheese icing.

Mom made homemade fudge and white chocolate covered pretzels.
Sausage balls...I made a few w/o cheese for Chris and Dr. Adams

Ravioli Dolci...I thought these were yummy!!! I've never made these before and I was glad they turned out. The one's below were filled with Chocolate.


These were filled with blueberries. I liked these the best. They would (and did) make a great breakfast teat, b/c they are pretty light.

Chex Muddy Buddies
Peanut Butter Brownie Cookies. There's a ball of peanut butter hidden under the chocolate icing:)

We played a little round of dirty santa. Instead of buying gifts we just brought random items that we didn't want and wrapped those up.
Memaw-to-be

Mom-to-be

Brother...I'm not even sure what this is, but he seems excited.


Trade off!
I knew I could get Kevin to stay a few minutes longer if I broke out the Wii Fit.
I really enjoyed spending time with my my family (old and new!)
