Visitors or Company?



I just today made my reservations with the airport shuttle so it seems appropriate that this should be today's entry for my JYC. I did exactly what Shimelle suggested as far as keeping it simple. It felt good to be done early and if this checked off my "to do" list. Paper and ribbon are from American Crafts. The tree and the letters were cut with the Cricut and the airplane embellishment was from a pack of goodies I picked up ages ago on the Target clearance aisle. Journaling says: For the first time in 10 years we will be travelling away from San Diego for Christmas. The last time we travelled somewhere was to June Lake in 1998. Sadly, that was our last Christmas with Colleen. This year we are off on an airplane to Washougal, WA to spend Christmas with Amy, Kirk, Ian and Annabelle. We will be joined by my mom and Brian all the way from Washington, D.C. My family has travelled many times for Christmas by car but this is our first time to be part of the throngs of people getting on an airplane and flying somewhere for Christmas. We are really quite excited – just hope we remember to pack everything we need!
