Rather than bore you with all of the reasons why I have completely ignored this blog for three maybe two weeks, I'll just pretend no time has past. No. No time at all. And besides, who wants to read my blog when you are off having family fun and ripping into presents and stuffing your mouth with delectables anyway? It is a known fact that during Christmas and New years I do a poor job at writing much of anything, so now I will stop rambling and move on. Shall we?
Why yes.
Thank you.
Two days after moving (yes, you read correctly...moving. But more on that later) we missed our flight to go to the States United to spend Christmas with Jason's family. We have decided to not waste any more of our little gray cells dwelling on the fact that we missed the flight. But I will tell you that after practically begging, bursting into tears, pouring out my heart, paying a fortune sweetly talking to the head Honcho at a certain airline we dislike, we caught another plane and actually made it to Miami, where we spent two too short days with our beloved friends Daniel and Tessa, and their adorable little princess, Tessa Isabella. Long story short, TI and Luka fell in love and had a blast together.
We then checked in early for our flight to New Orleans, only to wait for a long, long time for a delayed flight to the big Easy. Go figure. Goooo figure.
Sigh. but we are here, and we have been here and we are blessed to be with family and friends and we have been blessed with an abundance of kindness and generosity from everyone we encounter. God is so good to us.
He looks at her...
She looks at him...so this is love.
BeeGee and his grand babies.
Wild bunch
All excited about their matching PJ's
Me-EE-rry Christmaaas!
No need to faint. There were a lot of us. Hence the big pile.
Sleepy Christmas morning faces.
Poor baby was so sick, but he managed to open one present, at least, and watched bleary eyed as we oohed and ahhed over the rest for him.
The New Christmas Day tradition. Home. Made. Apple Pie.
Made by Moi, enjoyed by all.
Andy and Jill's engagement party
Congratulations!

Yes they did! They fell in love...when she was only 13 months old; although they met when she was only 2 weeks old! We definitely need to take that picture of them holding hands and smiling... sooooo cute! Besos, can't wait to see you! Xoxo
I'll have you know that I have seen the top of the Costa Rican Christmas tree every day since you folks left Costa Rica (late or not), and I am tired of it...tired of it I say!! I AM a loyal fan of your blog, and fond reader of your always vivacious writing. Soooo, I don't accept your pity party, and will only be satisfied when you go back to your one-a-day blog marathon. Toodles!
Dad
Love the bow on that sweet girl that Luka is in love with. And the matching pj's on Anna Kate and Luka, so cute! I'm glad you made it to LA after the fiasco ~ I know your family was glad you made it. We love all of you. Hope to see you soon!!
