Christmas in the Burg


Cal had a wonderful first Christmas!  We think so anyway since he hasn't been saying much.  Andy, Cal, and I headed to Brownsburg on Christmas Eve.  We went to mass at St. Malachy (so crowded!) but little Cal stayed at home with Uncle Josh.  We were there by around 3:25 for the 4 o'clock mass and it was already packed!  I'm not sure Cal could have lasted the whole time - we were packed in like sardines.  It was a lovely mass, though.  We headed home and had a family dinner - lobster tail was on the menu this year.  Quite tasty.  Then, we all stayed up watching It's a Wonderful Life and headed to bed to wait for Santa.  Christmas morning we opened our gifts after chowing down on some yummy sweet rolls courtesy of Andy - lots of nice things!  Andy and I are excited to try out our new toaster oven from mom and dad.  Cal loved the wagon from Grams and PawPaw even if he didn't express that as clearly as might have been polite!  After the unwrapping, we ate some appetizers.  I made some buffalo chicken dip - pretty good.  Uncle Josh made some crazy bacon-wrapped stuffed jalapeno thingies that were pretty darn good.  I wasn't sure about the cayenne pepper and cocktail weinies inside of them but they exceeded my expectations.
