For Christmas this year Louis, Ruby, my sister Michelle and I piled into the truck and made the 7 hour drive up to San Leandro. Ruby hadn't been feeling well the day prior, and ended up losing her cookies twice on the drive. I felt so bad for her! And us, for having to pull over, change her clothes, clean her up, clean out the car seat etc, all in what felt like 30 degree weather! Thankfully, we still made decent time and arrived safe and sound, with a load of laundry to do =)
Christmas eve was spent relaxing with family (who were making tamales-yum!) and loving on Ruby girl. She loved the attention of course, and enjoyed entertaining a new audience with her belly exposures and "meows"! By Christmas day, Ruby was making herself at home and got the hang of opening presents. She didn't quite understand that there were presents inside, but she loved taking out the tissue paper. She also enjoyed wandering around and shopping in other people's present piles =)
We had a great Christmas with family and the trip went by fast. Just when things settled down, it was time to go home. The drive home felt sooo long... But we still hope we can go back soon because Ruby had such a great time playing with all of her cousins! Here are few pics from the trip...

The best present of all, Ruby!:
