We finally made it down to California on Christmas Eve!  Steve and I both were able to get on earlier flights and that made all the difference in the world!  If we stayed with our original flights we would have missed a big portion of the Christmas Eve festivities. 

This Christmas Eve was really special because both the Washington and Dallas clans were able to be there this year and that hasn’t happened in years!  There were 37 of us!  PURE JOY!  Since we were all together we took family photos.  Here are the nieces and nephews…

Like I said, PURE JOY!
