What a weekend I had!
My mom had a cookie swap every year in Kansas for 9 years, and it eventually became they talk of our town and every one wanted to come because she is the most gracious host. She was
having one here in Boston with my auntie Carol and I know she deeply missed her friends in KS. I have always said that our friends in Kansas were our Kansas family. Two of our KS family members Heidi and Michelle had been planning to surprise my parents for my moms cookie swap.
I went with my Aunt to go get them and we all cried before they even surprised her! My Aunt went into the house and said she needed my moms help while we waited in the garage and my mom saw them, and sat down on the stairs and lost it, and we all cried. It means so much to us that they came, more than they know especially with everything going on with me, it took everything off my mind. My mom has always said those two have her heart, and she couldn't have been happier to see them.
Friday night was the cookie swap and we had family and friends over, and it was a lot of fun and laughs! It really put me in the Christmas spirit!
Michelle took all the gorgeous pictures of the weekend!
On Saturday we took Michelle and Heidi to Boston, and walked, shopped and ate, at Quincy Market, the north end, and Back Bay. The city was decorated for Christmas and looked gorgeous!
On Sunday morning as always we had Sulmonte family breakfast and we had a lot of people! It was a great morning- my papa got out his guitar :)
Then sadly it was time for Michelle and Heidi to leave and I had to get ready for my
god sons Christening.
My cousin James and his wife Katie asked me to be their second child Baby James godmother. I'm beyond honored and happy to be his godmother!! I love him more than he knows!
All in all it was a perfect weekend, filled with many many perfect moments!! :) :)
Merry Christmas,
Alexandra
