Hello again. I know it is a little late, but I hope that you all had a very Merry Christmas! I spent my week visiting with family almost twelve hours from home, so it was really special because we don’t get to see them very often. I am also thankful that I was able to be there to celebrate three big birthdays this year! This was actually the first winter that we have ever traveled to that part of the country, and the weather couldn’t have been any better. Though it was much colder than it was back home, it didn’t approach the sub-zero temperatures that we were expecting. Everyone kept telling us that it was unseasonably mild, so we were lucky that we could actually enjoy ourselves at this time of the year.
I also ate one of the biggest sandwiches that I have ever had at Primanti Bros. It was delicious, but it was ginormous; I have no idea how I was able to fit it into my mouth. I think my favorite part of the trip has to be snow-tubing with my cousins because I loved the adrenaline rush of racing down those tall, icy slopes. From snowman building to ordering a table-for-twenty dinner, we all had a really great time, and we certainly filled this Christmas with many memories.
Have you traveled anywhere recently? How was your holiday? I am super behind on the Reader, but I will try to catch up to some of your posts within the next few days. Thanks for reading!
It’s still within the Twelve Days of Christmas, so Merry, Merry! I am glad to see you have had a great time. My holiday includes my new daughter-in-law, visiting while my son is wrapping up his Navy service. We took in the South Rim of the Grand Canyon, Sedona and local attractions in Prescott. My best friend hosted Christmas dinner, which was astounding.

Hey Maysa! I loved hearing about your Christmas 😊💚 That sandwich looks SO good!
My family and I stayed home for Christmas this year. We celebrated my brother’s birthday on Christmas Eve, went for a drive and looked at Christmas lights, opened presents together on Christmas morning, and then ate a big breakfast! 😄❤️ We all really enjoyed ourselves.
