We decided to surprise family and visit them for Christmas. It was a last minute trip as we literally decided a month before that we would go. We drove about 20 hours with the girls hoping they would not freak out too much. We literally left right after Melany's ballet recital on Friday Dec. 19th at 9pm and got to LA on Sunday Dec. 21 at around 2am. From San Antonio, we stopped at Las Cruces to sleep in a hotel for about 4 hours. We really wanted to make it to my Sister Emily's 16th birthday on December 21st. We were so glad to make it on time and Oh so happy to see our family. We spent Christmas Eve with my family eating tamales and other yummy food. On Christmas day we opened presents with my family and then went out with Enoch's side of the family for a nice Italian dinner and opened Christmas gifts at Grandma Trefflich's home.
Some of the pictures are scattered and not necessarily in chronological order because we took some with our camera and with phones.
