We flew on Christmas Day (afternoon) to California to visit Grandma and Grandpa and others. It was such a great trip. I have to say leaving on Christmas was the way to go. We still did our own family things for Christmas Eve and Christmas morning, but we still got to do a lot of Christmas things with everyone else on the trip.
One thing the kids loved was Grandma and Grandpa’s backyard. My mom planned for that when we moved into that house 16 years ago. Thanks, mom! On my other camera are some pictures of the girls learning to skate. Neither had done it before and both did very well.
Another bonus was my grandpa was also visiting. He said he enjoyed all the noise and commotion of the kids. I believed it.
Darryl took some pictures of my sister’s family. I like this one with Hannah and baby David.
And a highlight was playing with cousins. Kathryn and Amelia love their cousin Hannah and you can see by the pictures that they had a great time together.
