somethings + nothings: November 18, 2016
We are about to jet across the country again, kicking off a holiday season that will see us in and out of Los Angeles no less than three different times. This initial trip takes us to Southern Illinois for a week to visit my Dad for Thanksgiving, where we will be joined by my brother and his own partner-in-crime. While the Mid-West in November isn't exactly the postcard Winter Wonderland, we're looking forward to a week of reading books and watching movies in pajamas and just being together.
