Matt's Graduation & Christmas

I was SO lucky to have my entire family come to Austin for Matt's graduation and Christmas a few months ago!  Everyone was able to make it and it was just wonderful :-)  Of course I've posted a ton of pictures and a few are out of order, but oh well!

My beautiful mom and adorable William

 We went over to our cousin's house to spend time with them!  Aunt Vickie and Uncle Ron were there too :-)

Cute little William!

Dad with the Scott's Amelia, Millie.

Future basketball stars!

Wouldn't be an Asay get together without dad playing the piano!  I've missed that sound!

Cousins!

The morning of Matt's graduation :-)

Wish we lived closer!

Before the graduation, we all ate at Rudy's BBQ.  We had a great time and enjoyed delicious Texas BBQ!

The Beards

Awesome friends and family

 Last year it was cranberries...this year it's chocolate cake, maybe next year she'll decide to eat with a fork ;-)

Matt's graduation

His mom and childhood mentor, Pearl

Way to go college grad!  Even William thinks its pretty cool :-)

Looks like the dads pulled babysitting duty!

Having Amelia in charge of Natalie....a scary idea!

Thanks for the lift Uncle Matt

Best family ever!

One night my parents volunteered to babysit the grandkids while the "kids" went out on the town.  We went downtown and ate awesome pizza at Roppolo's...as you can see, it was delicious!

After pizza, we went to Pete's Dueling Piano Bar and had a great time listening to these talented musicians play request after request.  It's hard to see as I pan around with the camera, but Scott, Trina, Michelle, Dan, and Matt are all jamming out :-)

Some good old fashioned holiday wrestling

Allison, as cute as could be!

Good times with my nephew!

Walking at Zilker Park

A happy-grin-scream!

Wonderful family!

Matt and I were so happy to be able to share our motorcycles with the girls!

Allison's turn!

Maybe in a couple of years you can drive Evelyn!

Some good old fashioned baby tossing

The best White Elephant prize....Chocolate!

Allison and Zeus

Of course we took a trip to Cabela's :-)

The girls boxing it out on Kinect!

Matt showing William how to play Call of Duty on the Xbox :-)

And if having my entire family come see me in Texas wasn't amazing enough, I got to go home to Los Alamos for a few days....which means I ate as many Chili Works burritos as I could!  SOOOOOO delicious :-)

 

Look at all that red chili!!!!!

 

My favorite spots at overlook

It was so much fun to see these friends of mine who I miss so much!
