Williams & Co: Oh What Fun!

Our Christmas fun has begun!

It started early on Saturday morning when we packed up the car and headed south to San Diego. Our first stop was to visit the Cortese family in Solana Beach. We had lunch and exchanged gifts.

The Cortese kids - Luke and Max (12 years-old) and Natalia Tru.

Natalia loves baby Kate.

Brooke sure did spoil our girl.
Check out the faux fur vest she got her. Kate, of course, was more interested in her $1 light up snowman!

Next, we were off to Nana and Papa's place. We ventured out to explore the Gaslamp District, but our tour of it was cut short by a crying Kate who was tired and wanted out of the car. We stopped and enjoyed an early Italian dinner out.

Sunday morning brought more special visits and presents! Jamie and her family are in San Diego for the week so Kate and I paid her a quick visit at the cute house they are renting in La Jolla.

The adorable shirt and sweater from Jamie are taste test approved.

It's never too early to start thinking about this, especially in crowded L.A.

We sure do love our Jamie (even with wet hair)!
Thank you for the great gifts.

After breakfast, Kate got to open her presents from Nana and Papa.

In her snazzy new shoes!

She's definitely getting the hang of Christmas gift opening.

Nana and Papa are now off to Washington to celebrate Christmas with cousins Daphne and Margot.

The weekend ended with a family Christmas lunch and cookie exchange hosted by Nici in Newport Beach. The girls and little ones decorated and exchanged (and ate) cookies while the guys started a tradition of their own: A Christmas Pub Crawl!
