    Beautiful family pictures! Do those hats come out of those firecracker popper things? Are the hats a family tradition?

    That oatmeal looks so creammy and yum! My fave pic of your oatmeal though was when Matt piled his oatmeal high with whipped cream! Now that’s what I call oatmeal!!

    We celebrate two Christmases too. It’s fun to spread them out so that basically the whole last two weeks of December are “Christmas” 🙂

    Kath, you’ve had such a picture perfect Christmas! It looks like the babe enjoyed his first holiday, too:)

    I have to say, I’m always so happy when I hit “the last hurrah” with dessert. Mine was yesterday when all of the peanut butter balls and gingerbread cookies were finished off. It was kind of like *sigh* “I can finally eat some healthy stuff again.” Today started with a swim workout and a green smoothie. My body was grateful!

    So fun! I love the sound of all your bread, I wish I could buy some! Of course I live in Ky and I cant find any bakery’s that sound as good as yours so far.

    Gorgeous family pics! Sweet potatoes with pistachios sound amazing! Are there some pumpkin seeds in the mix too? Looks yum! I also want to dive head first in to the Brussels with pecans…can’t get enough of the combo!

    Love the photo of everyone wearing their paper hats from the Christmas crackers! That is also one of our holiday traditions.

    Mazen looks so much older in these photos – so cute! Our babies were born around the same time, and it’s awesome to see how much they’re changing around this 3+ mo timeline. Happy New Year!
