Xmas 2009 with My WHOLE Family!

The Xmas holiday was extra special this year because all six members of my immediate family (Dad, Mom, myself & three siblings), as well as their families, were all together in the Twin Cities for almost a week! (The last time we were all together was in July 2007 for youngest brother Andy's wedding in New York.) We had an excellent time and activities included:
  • Xmas Day Madden 2010 on the PS3, snowman building, gift exchanges & Taboo playing
  • train-watching for Grandpa Dave, Tom & Zach
  • nephew Brady's baptism & post-baptism dinner at Buca (complete with car theft...ask Andy about that)
  • nephew Zach's first Packer game at Lambeau Field (while niece Kayla spent her day with Grandpa Dave & other family in the Twin Cities)
  • a trip to Mall of America
  • a spaghetti dinner & the MNF Vikings v Bears game at Grandma Mary & Aunt Ellen's house
  • sledding at the Town & Country Club
  • a family photo followed by pizza, pool & foosball at Parkway Pizza
  • a movie at the Riverview Theater
Here are some photos from our time together (in reverse chronological order because I haven't figured out how to change that on Flickr yet)...http://www.flickr.com/photos/anovitske/.

Can't wait to get together with everyone again...I miss you all already! :) Ann
