I woke up at 8 am today. What luxury! I know I just had a weeklong break over Thanksgiving three weeks ago but vacations are just so much fun. Marc and I have made plans and I just hope my Christmas break will be joyous. 2015 had been rather rough.

After years of spending Christmases abroad and going to crowded airports for our outbound and inbound trips, we are realizing there is totally no place like home for the holidays. For the second straight year, we're home and in the US to be with family for the most important holiday of the year.
