Disney on Ice!

We had a great Christmas in Southern California. On Christmas Eve day, we went to Disney on Ice at the Honda Center. It was a great show! All of the characters were there as they skated through the different celebrations we have throughout the year, ending with, of course, Christmas! We were able to invite the whole family to join us- Grandma, Grandpa, Soosa, Russell and baby Lucas. It was so nice to have something fun to do as a family before going to Christmas Eve service and than to Grandma and Grandpa's house for dinner. On the way home from the show we passed by four motorcycles on the freeway and the drivers were all dressed in bright red Santa suits. Their passengers were decked in festive holiday attire too... red fishnet stockings and all! It was awesome. It was a gorgeous day and it was SO cool to see these people out spreading Christmas spirit and enjoying the holiday. We were the ultimate passerbys too- we had the windows down- all smiling, gawking and waving as we zipped by them. I had to call my family right away. I always miss them so much on the years we don't travel back to Minnesota for Christmas. I miss having a white Christmas too. It was fun to share with them what I was experiencing in my So Cal Christmas.
