One More Celebration

After San Jose, it was onto Santa Maria with a Pismo Beach stop. We saw Nanay, Nana, Papa Domi, Auntie Virgie and Uncle Tony. Unfortunately we missed a lot of other family members.

Tim loved the sand!

Violet too!

Ashton having fun before he got into trouble for throwing sand in Tim's face!

Tim really liked the sand!

Oh so close!

As good as it gets!

How come Nana and Papa got a good one?

More Christmas Day Celebrations with Great Grandparents

After a fun filled morning, we headed to San Jose for more Christmas celebrations! The kids loved seeing their cousin Iris! The kids had a lot of park playing time, playing with their new toys, and getting some good family loving!

Merry Christmas at Home!

We wanted to wake up at home and celebrate Christmas morning before moving onto the next celebration! I made cinnamon rolls, yum! It followed the prime rib I made for our Christmas Eve dinner. The kids were so excited that Santa came into town!

Christmas Celebration #1

Our kids were spoiled, S.P.O.I.L.E.D.!!, this year with so many different Christmas celebrations. I think they think Christmas is a week long celebration instead of the one day! Our first celebration started with Nina Lucy and Nino Frank's family on Sunday! We were lucky enough to have a Filipino, cowboy Santa come into town just for us!
