Nothing Like Family for Christmas.. by Mary

Angie, Kimmie, Mary

Growing up my mom and her sister Carolyn would get together frequently and have coffee all day and cook a meal together while their kids (us) would play all day long before a scrumptious dinner. We were very close cousins, weekends and summers were spent in one another's homes, my Auntie Carolyn's house was a second home to me. As a matter of fact my Auntie Carolyn's kids are like siblings to me. As (somewhat) grown ups our kids call us Auntie and Uncle, cousin just doesnt sound right.

Kimmy, Baltazar, Mary With Christmas aproaching, it seemed appropriate to gather those of us who now live in the Vegas area. Cooking up a storm in traditional Winslow Family fashion. Freddy's Tacos and Posole with Red Chile was on the menu. Spicy, caloric heaven I call it.

Alexis (Angie's) and Bella (Kimmie's) It's interesting to see the generations falling into place like instinct.

And personalities repeating themselves.. ha ha

Alyssa and Alexis (Angie's), Zach It's also fun to see the family resemblance.

But maintaining that connection of love and support is really what its all about. As well as scrumptious food. We missed our other siblings Eddie, Lori, Jimmy, Che and Alex we love you all and wish you all the best in 2010.
