END OF 2011

J and I arrived home from Southern California this past weekend.  We had an absolutely wonderful time and were sad the trip had to come to an end.  It was such a special Christmas and New Year's Eve with my family.  One we will never forget.  We can't say enough how thankful and appreciative we are of the time we get so spend with them.  With Kyle (Navy) currently in Japan and Benjamin (Army) and Alisha leaving for Hawaii in a few months, holidays like these will be harder to come by.  The constant blue skies, sunshine, and 72 degree weather was an added bonus.  Here are photographs from our trip...
