For Christmas this year the entire family met up at our daughter’s Ariana and her husband Matt’s house. Keenan was able to join us so that the whole family was together to celebrate. It’s great having everyone together to be able to catch up on life. As usual, I do not want to go into detail regarding the ins-and-outs of the visit, but I did want to document the adventure through pictures to keep this chronologically correct. So here goes:
Annual trip to downtown Chicago to see the lights, visit Christkindlmarket, the Bean, Marshall Fields (Macy’s) windows and tree, and Cindy’s for a drink:
We tried some axe throwing:
Our traditional Christmas Eve fondue meal:
Christmas dinner and wine tasting:
Katrina updating a wreath she made years ago to match Ariana and Matt’s Christmas color scheme.
Christmas PJs.
We always complete jigsaw puzzles over the holidays as it is a fun activity that keeps everyone around talking about life.
Of course we had to order a deep dish Chicago pizza from Lou Malnati’s.
What a wonderful Christmas we had! So great getting together with the family. Thank you Ariana and Matt for hosting this year!
Merry Christmas!
