i spent a week in austin for christmas. i got to see sara! we saw national treasure 2, which was hilarious, ate at chuy's, and did some shopping. i had lunch with terri, which is always fun.

mars (bright dot middle left), the moon, taurus (below and a little right of the moon), and orion (bottom right) were close enough in the sky for me to get some pictures.

we got together with my mom's side of the family on the 22nd. mom, matthew, and i were all festive with our santa hats.




on the 23rd, we went over to my uncle pat's house for christmas with my dad's side.








my mom ended up getting really sick so the 24th was spent cleaning, wrapping presents, and making sweet potatoes and a chocolate pie. i did get to go out and take some pictures of christmas lights in my neighborhood.





christmas day was busy. presents with mom, dad, matthew, and grandma in the morning, followed by brunch. then i spent most of the day cooking christmas dinner.
