Holidays in Syracuse

The trip was wonderful!
This is a picture of us after a nice lunch at Dinosaur BBQ.

Here are just some photos from the fun!

How many grown-ups can you fit into a telephone booth?

Cuse basketball was a big highlight while in Syracuse. This trip I went to two games at
the dome.  See all that Orange in the background...These fans are serious!

We were blessed with a white Christmas and after a beautiful morning jog through
the snow, we cooked brunch for family and friends.

Our time was spent playing and enjoying life with Nate's amazing
 friends and family.

 

Nate and his beautiful Grandmother.

I returned overflowing with love and my fill of cold weather. I am happy to

be back in beautiful, sunny San Diego, where the weather

has been in the 70's.
