Holiday Redux

I took pictures during the holidays with good intentions to be posting but we can see that never happened.  So here's a little whirlwind tour through Thanksgiving and Christmas.  Thanksgiving at the beach is pretty awesome.  Especially in a relatively small town.  Here's the lowdown:

Get up early for a run/walk on the beach

Be awestruck by the beauty of the sun rising over the ocean

Finish the race and have breakfast at the club

Go to a crazy crowded street party in front of Pete's Bar.  No Macy's Day parade here - just hanging out with everyone east of the ditch and drinking mimosas.

And then there's normal turkey and food and stuff.  I made this super yummy turkey soup (with stuffing!) with our leftovers.  Including making the stock from scratch.  

Then it's Christmas and there are new ornaments.  I didn't collect very many during travels this year, but I did still pick up a few fun ones.  This one is from the local Greek fest. 

This is from my CA trip with Cassi and is to remind me that in hindsight it's really funny that we got motion sick and almost ran out of gas and someone had to pee on the side of the road.  

And my mom & Doug brought this pretty little guy back from Hawaii

Only 10 months until it's Christmas again!
