Are You There Blog? It's Me, Kristin.

You're still here! I'm sorry I've neglected you for oh...just the past year and a half. Let's just pick up where we left off and pretend like I've been blogging all this time. Christmas was absolutely wonderful! We spent it in New Orleans with my entire family. It's so rare that we can all be together, and I must say I LOVED it.

Drew and I headed down to New Orleans Christmas Eve morning. We met the whole fam at Cafe Du Monde in the Quarter for some yummy beignets and coffee!

While at breakfast, Johnny and Amber surprised us with some exciting news! They're expecting a new baby in August. We're so excited for them and can't wait to have a new little niece or nephew. And I know our sweet little niece Adison can't wait to have a new little brother or sister. Not to sound like an obsessed aunt, but Adison had to be the cutest thing at Christmas -she had complete present OVERLOAD! Here's her snuggling with Unkie Dew!

The rest of our New Orleans vacay flew by with lots of aunts, uncles, cousins and Mimi time. When we got back to Jackson, we celebrated Christmas with Drew's family. Drew's mom's birthday is Dec 28th so we had a joint Christmas birthday celebration at our house. We ordered in food, had a few glasses of wine and watched the Bears game. A perfect, relaxing evening.

So now the holidays are over, and it's boring COLD January. But that's okay because 2010 is looking to be a pretty exciting year with bachelorette parties, weddings, trips, a new little niece or nephew and our 2 year anniversary. And...Santa brought me a new camera for Christmas so no more excuses not to document all of the upcoming fun.
