christmas dinner

christmas evening allie and bob hosted a big family dinner. there were lots and lots of cousins, but beckett was especially in love with his second cousin, avery. she is three and very tiny (but don't call her little... she finds it very offensive) and beckett couldn't handle her. he had to give her one hundred hugs. matt cooked filet mignon (for 30!) and it turned out so delicious. everybody loved it. we also had twice baked potatoes and green beans and salad. everything was so good. i ate up every bit of my overflowing plate. we had a great time visiting with all the reno family (and some bay area family) and i hope beckett gets a lot more opportunities to hang out with his big fat greek family. oh yes! little yiayia (matt's grandma) did make baklava. nom nom nom.
