A very belated Christmas post

Christmas has come and gone. Shane and I are done with our holiday travels and we're both back at work today.  We had a wonderful time in Ohio and we're both a little homesick, but we spent a lot of our time there preaching about how great California is, so hopefully we'll have a few visitors before too long (HINT, HINT!!).

I think I can sum up most of our holiday season with photos...

Archie and Traveller slept while visions of sugarplums danced in their heads
Our PHENOMENAL friends Kennedy & Dan dogsat for us

Shane and I had OUR Christmas the night before we flew to Toledo
Note the glasses of Cider -- our new Christmas tradition!

Shane got me an iPhone! Woo hooooo!

Flew to Chicago where we spent the afternoon and early evening

Amtraked to Toledo where we were greeted with a TON of Christmas cheer

Loved on precious baby Nico (nephew)

Played with Kobe (and missed Archie of course)

Flew home via Virgin America First Class (additional post on this subject coming soon)

Archie declared that next time we travel he's coming with us

We hope everyone had as wonderful a Christmas as we did, and we wish you a very happy new year!
