Stop And Smell The Roses

Well I have a special surprise for the few of you that read the blog. I'm so excited that I can't stop smiling...my mom is making a special trip out to California for a few days right after Christmas.Flights have been arranged and I couldn't be more excited to make drive to pick her up next week. I've really missed my mama...it will be so good to spend some girl time with her.
Well not only is she coming to spend time with us but we will be attending the 2011 Tournament of Roses Parade in Pasadena. We really wanted to go last year but we chickened out at the last minute. Over 1 million packed onto Colorado Blvd. to watch the Rose Parade intimidated us in our first months here in California. Well since our Missouri plans changed and we'll be in California for the new year, we decided to go to the Rose Parade this year. I'm so excited that we'll be able to attend the parade with my mom.


This will be our last Christmas in California so we are wanting to make the most of it. It doesn't get much better than Christmas with the in-laws and New Years with my mom. We're so fortunate because we are getting to enjoy a bit of both worlds.

5 Days Until Christmas, 9 Days Until Mom Arrives and 12 Days Until The Rose Parade!!!
