How kitty prefers to ride
I headed out to Palm Desert to celebrate Christmas with my parents and Grandad, with my brother and SIL joining us on Monday for a day. It was so gorgeous out there and I feel so blessed to have such a loving and generous family. It may not have been a white Christmas, but I didn't feel the need to be upset as I was laying poolside soaking up the sun. Life is good. I love being back in CA :)
Christmas Eve
We love you Grandad!
My dad made this for my mom. A kitchen makeover that he presented in an Extreme Home Makeover way. Such a good gift giver.
Met up with my friend Tara for a little pool day
Matching scarves for 3
About as close as the furry cousins would get to one another
Iced spicy chai mix from Trader Joe's = dang good
A little El Paseo (fantasy) shopping
A necklace I picked out with a gift certificate I had
All pics taken with my iPhone. One of these days I'll start using my camera again...
I hope you had wonderful weekends with your family and loved ones! I'd love to hear the best part about your Christmas or holidays!!
