Our Christmas vacation started this year with making a trip to SA to see my grandparents and go to Sea World.
Then we hopped on a plane Christmas Eve and spent the rest of the week with Ryan's sisters and his parent in New Jersey.
Rylee got to meet her 5 cousins for the first time, as well as her 2 aunts, 2 uncles, 3 great-aunts, 3 great-uncles, dozen or so cousins-once-removed, and tons of second cousins.
She opened lots of presents!
We did a little roller skating after my niece's skating lesson.
Ryan turned 30!
We had a Orozco family google hangout to talk with my brother who's in Mexico.
And we FaceTimed my Lanham family.
Our flight home Sunday was at 6am, so we got to wake up at 3:45am. Rylee had started getting a runny nose the night before. Initially I thought it was teething, but about halfway through our connecting flight, I heard the congestion move to her chest. All three of us were worn out and tired when we got home, but Rylee wasn't quite ready for sleep. Ryan took her so I could nap. When I woke up, it was dead quiet. I went out to the living room and found every toy rylee owns strewn about, and my two favorite people, snuggled up on the couch under the Christmas quilt my stepmom made me last year.
The best Christmas present is yet to come. My brother gets home from his mission a week from Wednesday, and then we fly to Orlando to see my family on the 20th! So excited! I can't even contain myself!
Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas!
