This year for Thanksgiving we visited California. It was our first visit in nearly 2 years!
 |
| Elliot's 1st trip with his own luggage. The kids were champs! |
 |
| Lydia's face when I told her we made it to California. |
We did lots of favorite SoCal activities, including volleyball and the pool. We also enjoyed the parents' new backyard fire pit.
Elliot was living the dream with a houseful of new (to him) toys.
We visited GG for a Thanksgiving Dinner.
 |
| Our traditional walk around the block with GG. |
For Christmas we were back in Dallas, and had our own little family celebrations.
 |
| Driving through the Dallas Zoo with Christmas lights |
 |
| Horse-drawn carriages nightly visit our neighborhood en route to neighborhoods with fancy Christmas lights |
 |
| Lydia's 1st Christmas, and she's loving it |
