Christmas Down Under — Lillianna Blake; P. Seymour

We had our share of Christmas invites, to be sure. But after last year's travel between hubby's parents and my own relatives, we threw in the towel this year.

A vacation away - that's what we needed!

It only took a little convincing for me to decide that Australia would be a good first international trip to attempt as a family. And with Abby's current obsession with koala bears, I'm sure it will be a hit.
