Winter Wonderland

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!!

We hope everyone has a really great Christmas! It's kind of weird one for us. Travis and I's first Christmas without family plus our families are all separated too! My mom is in Connecticut, Dad and David are at the ranch, and Danny today has to work in Lubbock. Travis' mom is in Austin and Maddy is in Canada. It had to happen sometime. We miss all of them and hope they have a nice Christmas all over there! We got some snow last week but its only rainy now so no white Christmas for us.

A little while ago Travis and I went to the Winter Wonderland festival in Hyde Park. It was a very cold day but we were surrounded by the smells of delicious food! We walked down to the Marble Arch where on Sundays people stand up and talk about whatever. There was a man from a Catholic group and a guy from the States. It was interesting listening to the debating and questions people had from them. We also walked over to Harrods! That is the best looking department store I've ever seen! They had rooms for certain things like a room for chocolate, a bakery (with a Krispe Kreme), perfume, everything! Trafalgar Square has a Christmas tree like Rockefellar only not nearly as impressive. It only had white lights hanging straight down and a star. There were carolers from different groups every hour from 5 to 9 from Dec 12 to 21st I think.
