Going Home for Christmas, the 23rd

We strapped up Leo the red-nosed kitty, but he just got mad.

The trip usually takes us 4 hours, but we did it in 3:45 since we were so excited to get there.

Yes, there is such a place.

If you know anything about northern Ohio, you know that it can be very flat and gray and brown in the winter. Despite the monotone driving, I came down with a slight bit of car sickness from trying to read in the car. This was soon cured when I was greeted at my Mom & Dad's house by some color. And a bowl of vegetable soup.

Mom was already getting ready in the kitchen for Christmas eve. Here she is posing with Edward's Red Velvet birthday cake.

We went over to Andrea's for pizza Saturday evening and everyone was there. I only took a picture of Andrea in her kitchen. It was so clean you could have eaten off the floor. I always notice that about Andrea, probably because she was in the military.

I won't mind such a place :)

I used to be able to read in any circumstance but lately I have to be careful.

Great pictures! Thanks for sharing!
