Carter Christmas 7 | Goodbye CA Carters

We knew our time with the California Carters would be short, but it absolutely flew by. In addition to spending time with our amazing nieces (comprehensively photographed in previous posts) was a real gift. They are absolute treasures and we wish that we were closer or able to visit more frequently. As a bonus, today we got to go on a couples' lunch with Ash and Courtney and just have some time away, sharing about our hopes for the new year. Heath and Courtney assembled a delicious dinner — flatbread pizzas and a spicy pasta dish. Heath, Ash and Mac took a siblings' retreat to Starbucks and we all ended the night with a game of Apples to Apples, which Grandad won handily.

It was a nice end to our time with the west coast side of the family.

As our last day as a fully assembled family, we also had family pictures on the agenda. Grandad, a closet photographer, tried to capture us all at our best. :-)
