We work until 4:00pm Christmas Eve. We'll spend the evening of Christmas Eve with Neil's parents, kiddos, and our fur babies with presents and pancakes. Yep, we decided pancakes for dinner this Christmas. Christmas morning we'll squeeze in a little more time with the kids, then we head to the airport. We fly out Christmas Day direct from Sydney to Dallas/Ft Worth. We'll be in the air 15 hours and 20 minutes. You think that sounds bad? Try 16 hours and 55 minutes on the return flight. It is the longest running commercial flight going. I'm good. I watch a movie or two, and I sleep. Poor Neil. He doesn't sleep on any kind of transport.

I pretty much invited myself to my aunt's and uncle's for New Year's Eve at their farm. And, I'm going to squeeze in a day at College Station, an Aggie basketball game, a day in Fort Worth, a few stops at Buc-ee's during the road trips, Tex-Mex and more Tex-Mex, and somewhere, we'll find time to sleep.
In honor of my dual continent Christmas celebration, I share with you these white trash Texan and bogan-tastic Australian Christmas songs. I love them both!
It'll be so nice for you to be able to be in Texas for Christmas!
