It's Almost Christmas
The Christmas season is always so much fun in Vilnius. It is always snowing by Thanksgiving and by the time December comes around, we have several Christmas parties and activities to join. However it has not snowed yet this year! It is so wierd that it is December 23 and no snow. Of course, it isn't wierd for Texas, but it is pretty odd here. All of my students are worried that Santa wont visit because there is no snow. I had to explain to them that Santa visits places where there is no snow at Christmas.
Fall in Vilnius
As soon as we arrived in Vilnius, we went through the process of unpacking and getting over jetlag.
We started school and Giuliana spent her days with Grazina. She was so happy to see "Gee" again!
September 2nd is Kelly's Birthday so we celebrated by going out to dinner with some friends and then having some cake at home while he opened his presents!

Summer in Texas- End
The last few weeks of our summer vacation we spent in Dallas. This summer I had to have a small surgery, so I was on the couch for a few days. After I recovered, we went to Denton to see the Cocos!
We didn't get to stay very long because I still wasn't feeling very well, but we did get enough time to see 3 new baby girls we had never met! Addie was almost a year old when we met her for the first time, Piper was almost 3 months old, and Georgia was only 6 weeks old!
I don't have any pictures of the 5 of us! At least we got the cute pictures of all the Coco babies!
After the Coco weekend, we headed down to the ranch for the weekend.
Every summer, Doodle takes Kelly and I out to lunch and this year we went to Hunky's again. Giuliana enjoyed it more this summer than the last.
The rest of our time in Dallas was spent in the pool, helping Caki water the flowers, shopping at the mall with Caki, and visiting with family and friends.
