Our plans for the Christmas holidays have changed since we made the move to Oregon in July. We had planned to drive down to LA - take some time each way and see the places and things we missed during the move with the cars and truck. However, there is one thing we all agreed with as soon as we stepped out of our various vehicles.....we will not make that drive again - period!
So, we all made airline reservations and hotel reservations for Christmas in LA and almost immediately Joe and I realized it was going to cost us a fortune and we just left LA. We elected to cancel our plans and stay home for this first Christmas in Oregon. John (JJ) has his own apartment near us and made the same decision - so it will be the three of us enjoying a very quiet holiday together in our new home/s.
Pam will be flying down to join her kids and grand kids and sister Kathi and family for a busier and FUNNER time and we will really miss them. Maybe next year? Or - maybe everyone can come up to Oregon?
We spent our time together baking cookies, watching movies, snuggling to keep warm (lol) and missing all the members of our family and the exciting and hectic festivities but keeping in touch with lots and lots of pix!!!
MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY - HAPPY NEW YEAR - HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS - RIGHT?
