Christmas Festivities

We traveled to Arlington from 12/19-12/24 to visit with family and friends. Beatrice was a gem on the airplane. Lillian - not as much. I brought her car seat, which probably saved me from being mauled by my 1.5 year old, but it was still a very long plane ride.
We had a great time in Arlington. Mimi and the girls bunked up for 5 nights and did amazingly well! Bea slept on her pull-out chair and we stuck Lily's pack-n-play in the dressing area. Beatrice LOVED having room mates and was very sad to return to her current solo sleeping arrangement. We made it home late on Christmas Eve and had a wonderful Christmas morning followed by lunch at Nana's and dinner at Grandpa's house. The girls kept up their energy and spirits - it was a day full of amazing food & present galore.
