Christmas Day in Arizona

This year for the Christmas holiday, I flew to see my parents in their new home in Arizona.


Last year at Christmas time, I wasn't so sure about this whole Christmas in Arizona business. No snow? How Christmassy could that possibly be? Turns out, it completely rocks to be in Arizona instead of Minnesota in December.

Okay, maybe that seems immediately obvious, but it wasn't to me.

Yesterday, we went out to a nearby pecan orchard and snacked on yumminess.


Then, we went wine tasting!



And today, on Christmas Day, we went hiking in the foothills.

We ran into a lot of other people hiking, as well. Each one said, "Merry Christmas!" exuberantly.

I love Christmas in Arizona.
