Our trip to NY started off on the wrong foot. Our flights were delayed due to a massive snowstorm and by the time we arrived in Sayville at 1:30 in the morning, Texas was ready to go to the emergency room for a high fever and violent cough. It took a few days for all of us to recover, but we managed to have a great time nonetheless.
Texas loved looking at the snow from inside the house. There was over three feet waiting for us when we arrived. This was Tex's first time seeing snow and he liked to call it "big snow", "white snow", and "coooooold". We took him outside only once and he got a taste of how cold it truly was. He asked to come back inside immediately - that's a true California boy for ya!
Highlights of the trip included GramZ's famous lasagna, meeting Auntie DD Danielle's boyfriend Joe for the first time (thumbs up from everyone!), playing with Tex's new train set from PawZ, seeing the Sayville crew and meeting Oliver for the first time, and spending time at home with the Dodos. Overall, it turned out to be a great trip.
Each picture below includes a Christmas song that we felt best described the mood at that moment. Enjoy!
