Christmas in Texas


Today Joey, Max and I are setting off on our long Christmas journey to the country of Texas. It will most likely be a 20 plus hour adventure. We'll be staying in Amarillo and Pampa until Jan. 1st and then we will be coming home. We are excited to see family, and for Max to meet Joey's side of the family. The last few days have been very stressful, trying to get things finished here as well as prepare for our trip. Today, I have a huge list of things to do before we set out. In case you are wondering, I still have to pack, walk the dog, go to the post office, etc.
Some how this advent season has snuck by. I have to confess that this has probably been the first advent where I really haven't been able to slow down and really appreciate what this wonderful season is all about. Maybe 20 hours of sitting in the car is a God-send afterall. I'm sure we will be sharing some Texas pics with you shortly.
Merry Christmas to you all and a Happy New Year!!

I, for one, can say Joey's side of the family is looking forward to seeing both of you again AND getting to meet Max! I hope you get Joey to help you take care of the last minute details-that way you can leave quicker! Drive safely and we will see you when you get here! Davena
