This Christmas break we were originally scheduled to go to Rome. We were going to head off right after Christmas with a bunch of students from Kristin's Latin class, and we would have gotten back today. After we discovered that little Jack would be joining us, it seemed a good idea to cancel, so we ended up in good ole Oklahoma instead. It was a heck of a difficult decision to make... after all, who wants to give up a free trip to Europe? After the three-hour drive back from OKC took its toll on my lovely eight-months-pregnant wife, I think it's safe to say that cancelling the 13-hour flight was a pretty good idea.
Christmas was fantastic, and probably just the thing we needed. It gets a little lonely when you can't go out to a smoky bar, you get tired after 9:00, and you live at least an hour away from all of your closest friends and family. We got to spend a worry-free week with all of our friends and both families. Christmas is always our favorite time of the year anyway, and being with family for so long just made it that much better. Kristin tells me that my writing stinks, so how about some pictures...
