New Years Day Brunch

Our all-night-party days are over (unless you count singing lullabies at 3 am a party!). So we opted for the more subdued brunch celebration for New Years. I love brunch. There is something great about a meal that encompasses breakfast and lunch served with mimosas, MMMmmmm. And strata is our new favorite brunch food- just after crepes.

We also took this as another chance for Amelia to wear her pretty holiday dress and get some pictures in front of the Christmas tree.

Amelia enjoyed playing with the big girls Kara and Zoe.

Amity and John even brought their brand-new baby Thea over. She is soo cute and tiny- it is hard to remember Amelia being that small! I love this picture- Amanda is happy to bounce little Thea and you can compare two new dads. Ben has a 6 mo baby and John has a 3 wo. Both of them are a wee bit tired, but so happy!

It still amazes me that we have friends from grad school that live so close. It is really wonderful to spend time with Bonnie, Peter, sleepy little Sol, Andrey and Jessica.
Did I mention that little baby Thea came over? So cute! And Amity looks great despite our out-of-focus picture.
