Why it's Christmas!

We spent Christmas in NY with the Fitzula side of the family. We began our trip to NY at 830am and made it to Newark, DE where we stayed the night and got to see my Aunt, Uncle and cousins. I love visiting family, just wish we could beam ourselves there instead of riding in the car. The kids did well, but Lilly ended up watching a DVD player for a long while (most of the trip). We started the next morning to NY and made that by mid-afternoon. It was nice to be at our final destination!

Lilly did not want to get any closer to Santa , even when he had gifts for her!

MJ on the otherhand, loved Santa!

Aunt Betty, is Fitz's great Aunt on his dad's side. No one is sure as to how old she is other then that she is well over 90! She came for dinner one night while we were in NY, and the girls just loved her. They played with her for a while before the food was actually ready. At dinner Lilly informed us all "I love Aunt Betty." That is one of the first times Lilly has said that without being prompted, for someone she had just met.

Fitz and I had the chance to visit with a good high school buddy of Fitz's who lives in Bermuda. The last time we all saw each other there were no children and we were all newly married! Look how times have changed. We just wish her hubby was there too, he had not yet travelled from Bermuda!

Lilly and MJ had some matching pajama's from Eenie, they posed in front of the Christmas tree at Grandma's House. Other then having to leave unexpectedly on Christmas Day to beat the snow storm home, we had a great trip and a great visit to NY. We are happy to be home, and looking forward to spending time with Uncle Bobby before he heads back to Hawaii and then on to Kuwait.
