{ Celebrating Christmas }

Happy New Year to everyone! It has been a wonderful holiday for our family. We had planned to stay home this Christmas, but our plans changed and we ended up traveling back to Ohio. Definately unexpected. I mailed all our gifts and so did our family in Ohio. There was still shopping, baking and decorating to do. But at the last minute Pat needed to go back to Ohio for work and we decided to go with him since school was out...well, almost out. The kids were not too worried about missing 2 days of school.
So with one day notice, we had an early Christmas at home and opened our gifts to each other. The kids played with their new toys for the night and then we packed our things and left at 4:30 in the morning. We surprised all our family in Ohio...since it too was a surprise for us. And so our unexpected Christmas travel turned out to be a memorable one. There is nothing better than being with family for the holidays!
