Today I’m thankful for a short drive from Baton Rouge to Houston. Once we arrived, we were greeted by one of Rick’s cousins and her family. What a treat! Lunch at Rudy’s, our favorite BBQ place, then The Muppet Chrismas Carol with the family tonight. 
Excited for Christmas Eve and more family tomorrow. I miss my sister who is visiting one of her son’s in Canada, but I’m happy she’s having a great time and a well-deserved vacation.
