My brother, Weston, is an Air Force man.
We are proud but we miss him.
He came home in the middle of December to celebrate Christmas early.
My sister, Amber, typed up an itinerary in late November to ensure that we got the most of our time with him.
We stayed busy!
We started out by having a family dinner together and then going to the Celebration of Lights.
There is something about lights and kids.
It makes them instantly happy and excited.
This year it was held at the race track and it was twice as long as last year's display.
All of us (illegally) piled into my parent's Yukon and turned up the Christmas carols.

dAmber and Kyle run in the Santa Run Race every year and get free tickets to the Magical Forest at Opportunity Village. The kids played a round of golf, ate funnel cakes and hot chocolate and rode the carousel.
We spent Wednesday night of that week at Elizabeth's first band concert (she plays the flute!) and Thursday night we went to Naomi's first dance/voice recital.
Both of these events were must sees, but I think next time I will leave the kids at home.
Nightmare.
