This year we made the drive to Austin to spend Christmas with my family. We went through Kansas City for a Christmas dinner with Jeff's family and to drop off the dog. Oh... the joys (not really) of having a dog. We enjoyed our time with both families and the kids really enjoyed being with their cousins. Jeff and I even got away for a couple of days down to San Antonio and a HUGE thank you to my family for keeping the kids while we were down there. The kids all were happy with what was left under the tree but most especially, just being together. We hope everyone enjoyed the holidays with family and friends and have a blessed upcoming 2009. **Lots more pictures in the Texas Xmas '08 link**
