Kevin tells me that my blog fans will be quite upset if I don't post soon, as seeing as how we will be running around crazy for the next few days, I figured I would post a holiday wrap up (get it, wrap? wrapping paper? bah, you guys are no fun.)
On Christmas Eve we went to Mass with my parents and brother and then joined them, along with our family friends the Miscavages, for dinner at my parents house. Previous to this, I spent about two days in the kitchen baking desserts and cookies for the holidays and to give as gifts, so I can honestly say that our new kitchen can't come soon enough! I'm so sick of that awful old room. Here's a pic of Kev and I in our gingerbread workshop:
In related culinary news, we had to make the purchase of a new fridge since ours was truly at the end of its life and our new cabinets have been ordered! Construction will begin in January.

I was also completely remiss to mention our holiday cookie bake with Etown friends, which this year took place in Germantown, Md. Sorry girls! We had a great time catching up and baking.
Anyway, after opening gifts on Christmas Eve with my family (and getting to bed at around 2 a.m.) we woke up Christmas morning to open our gifts here (taking approximately 27.6 seconds; I got tickets to see Les Mis in NYC and Kevin got his Etown baseball jersey framed)
and then we headed to his grandparents in South Jersey for breakfast with the rest of Kevin's immediate family and Msgr. Martin, who conducted our wedding Mass. The rest of the day was spent at Kevin's parents house; it was nice to visit and relax with everyone!

The rest of the day was spent at Kevin's parents house; it was nice to visit and relax with everyone! The day after Christmas resulted in more kitchen time for me, as I was making Kevin's favorite dinner, meatballs and gravy, for his family who would again be dining with us that evening. I also had to make the famous Masciulli birthday cake, which I am happy to say turned out of the pans perfectly, even if the icing was a little thin. The whole fam was together again in the evening to celebrate Kev's 27th birthday with some singing, much to his chagrin.
Today we had breakfast with Mark and Cara Dixon and their 3-month-old, Samuel. Shortly we will be heading to Atlantic City for a TSO concert tonight and then tomorrow to York to visit with friends and family.
Whew - thanks for reading and staying up to date on our crazy lives!
