2017 Thanksgiving and Christmas - Busy times

As we are packing for our January trip to Ethiopia, we are still getting over the rush to celebrate Thanksgiving at Sherry's sister's home with her family and 1/2 the Collins clan.  Greg, Francy, Lucy and Trent made it  to Thanksgiving.

Did a trip to Fredericksburg to see the Christmas Lights turned on.

Thanksgiving hike into Love Creek

Next came Christmas with Dianne and family (less Nobel).  I cut the Ash Juniper just before their arrival and let the kids mostly decorate it.  Dianne shipped boxes of Amazon goods down here so the kids could have presents and back at home.  They did a short trip to Mexico to see Mauricio's family and then back Christmas Eve.
