The Vacation Begins

Christmas couldn't have come any faster, we were so excited to take a break from crazy-hectic day-to-day stuff and spend some time with the fam. As most of you know, my parents have been in Spain for the last 3 Christmases, and we were fortunate enough to spend 2 of them with them, but this was the first year that we had both of our families in the same country, let alone the same city. So we tried our best to find some time with both families. To start off our Christmas vacation, what better way than a rousing game of bowling, a good lunch and some shopping! Everyone had such a great game, I think almost everyone broke 100 which is pretty impressive! We had a blast.







My sister Melissa and her husband Ryan actually surprised my parents by coming a week early from Arizona. My parents were very surprised, and we all kept the secret very well, I guess that means we're pretty good liars or something. Then that night we got together with the Farnsworth crew and played a few games as a family. One of the favorites is Catch Phrase, let's just say everyone gets a bit passionate about it, and there are quite a few laughs.
