Christmas 2009

Mark and I had a wonderful Christmas break. Mark had December 24th through January 4th off, so we headed up to Phoenix to spend time with our families. We spent Christmas Eve and Christmas morning with the Williams. On Christmas Eve we went to mass at St. Joan of Arc in Phoenix and then went ate Christmas Eve dinner at Mark's Granma's house. It was quite delicious! The next morning Mark's sister, Tatjana and her family came over to the Williams and we opened gifts. It was very fun watching our nephew, Cameron, open all his gifts and then "help" everyone else open their gifts. Here are some pictures from our Christmas with the Williams.








After opening gifts and a delicious breakfast we headed over to the Browns to celebrate Christmas with them. We opened gifts and then lounged around while my dad cooked Christmas dinner. After dinner, my sister, Liz, Mark and I met up with our friend Zach (one of the best men in our wedding) and his brother and went and saw "Invictus." It was a good movie, but Mark and I were so tired that we both fell asleep. The next morning we drove to Tucson to celebrate Christmas with my aunt and uncle and cousins. We had a delicious meal followed by cake to celebrate my cousin, Marc's girlfriend Laura's 21st birthday. After watching some football and playing some pool we headed out to the bars at midnight with Laura. Here are some pictures of our Christmas with the Lee's.










Even Brodie got into the Christmas Spirit!



Mark and I celebrated the New Year by going over to our friend Jordan's house. It is so odd to think that a whole decade has passed since Y2K! On January 1st we all gathered at the Williams to watch the Rose Bowl. It was a sad loss for Oregon!
