Happenings

How is it the new year already?

Seriously, I think the holidays go by faster and faster each year.

The decorations are all put away,

the hubby returned to work this morning,

and life has gone back to its regular routine.

Here's a little glimpse (via iphone) at our happenings the past few weeks...

It's been really cold here in LA so baby Evelyn got a new hat.

One morning, we took advantage of the hubby being off work 

and had a family walk to Starbucks.

Christmas Eve and Christmas were spent at my parents house.

It was so great to have the family together,

and fun to watch the baby open presents (aka play with wrapping paper)

New Year's Eve was spent at home with friends.

The hubby made homemade pizza on his new pizza stone

and we counted down to the new year while playing Apples to Apples.

Clearly these weren't my cards.

Evelyn called it a night at 8:00 and spent the final hours of 2012 in bed.

In the morning I made a Quiche Lorraine and breakfast potatoes,

enjoyed with mimosas and bloodies.

And today we went grocery shopping.  

Evelyn sat in the cart like a big girl while we stocked up on healthy foods for the new year.

As my sister said, it looks like she's holding on for dear life.

But really she's just getting ready to lean down and lick the cart.

Yum.

Hope your new year is off to a great start!
