Christmas/New Year's Eve Party

We stayed at my big brother's house during our quick trip to San Diego, and he also hosted "Christmas" at his house on New Year's Eve.  (THANKS Scott!) It was nice to get to hang out with my mom's side of the family and open presents!

My mother's little sister, Aunt Diane (with Brooke):

Aunt Diane's daughter, Julianna, is a favorite of the Girls.  She's a 5th grader already!

Diane's husband, Dale, and their son, Brandon.  Brandon was just a toddler as the ring bearer in my wedding in 1999! Now, he's a teenage boy:

Scott, and his girlfriend, Jenny:

I love this fireside picture of my mom and aunt:

Proof that sisters really are forever and ever!
