Week 1 of Family Vacation

Lis and I :)
Our evil/fat kitty Domino




We love Jack!! He's so adorable!




Yay for sisters!












My brother Joseph--he's a dork. :)

My goofy sisters


I'm wearing Lis's shirt in this one--I think it looks like a Lorelai shirt. Yay.

Us in Brussels


I hope everyone had an amazing Christmas! Kirk and I had an interesting start to our vacation. We actually missed our flight on the 20th, so we ended up staying with my aunt and uncle for a day (we had a lot of fun with them, so no regrets there). We made sure to get to the airport super early on the 21st, and we actually got to hang out with our friends Bret and Kim, who happened to be there early too. :)


We got to Belgium safely and are having an awesome time. The first night we got here, we went over to Brussels and had a taste (literally) of Belgium. We had some delicioso hot Brussel waffles that Kirk hasn't stopped talking about. :) We spent the next day in Cologne, Germany--this is where we took most of the pictures above. We saw the beautiful cathedral there and got to hit up a couple of oh-so-cute Christmas markets.

We've just been hanging out at the house for the past couple of days (playing games and watching our favorites shows), but we are headed to Paris tomorrow! Woo-hoo!
