We had our first Christmas away from family. Our morning was filled with gift opening and playing with all of the new toys.
Shortly after, we got dressed and made our way to the Monroe's (Alex and Lynette's) to be apart of their family festivities. Alex and Briz have known each other since Middle School and Briz is very close to his family. Coincidentally a few years ago Alex and his family relocated to Texas themselves. They have been very welcoming inviting us to all of their family events. The two hour drive for Christmas dinner was well worth it. We felt like we never left California! What might have been predicted as a quiet, empty Christmas was filled with laughter and love.
