Martinez Christmas Vacation





Well we just returned from a 3 1/2 week holiday vacation to Utah and Texas. It was a wonderful Christmas celebrating Reed's first Christmas and celebrating Rachel's 30th birthday. Reed and Victoria really have many people that love them in Utah and Texas and we traveled home with much more luggage than we left with from CT! We enjoyed spending time with both the Crane family and Martinez family. We had a great time shoveling (what seemed about 10 feet of snow), sledding, paying basketball, skiing (Richard) and spending time with family in Utah. In Texas, we enjoyed spending time with family, playing basketball, staying at a Texas hill country resort, watching movies and the 70 - 80 degree weather. It was great wearing shorts, flip-flops and a t-shirt before our return to the frozen tundra that is New England. Although we are excited to be back home in Connecticut and getting ready for the Spring semester at UCONN, we truly cherished the time we spent with our families over the holidays. We wish you all a wonderful 2009!
