CHRISTMAS IS COMING...

Mom and dad were grounded from travel this Christmas since Cal's baby brother will be here in 4 weeks. So the Phillips clan traveled to Austin to have an early family celebration together. Good times were had by all. Cal and his cousin Russell attended a breakfast with Santa - neither was very interested in actually meeting the fat man but we had a blast decorated cookies (i.e., eating icing) and playing with the other kiddos. We also took the whole family to see Austin's "Trail of Lights" in Zilker Park on a particuarly cold night. Russell and Cal got along great (most of the time) and have fond memories of each other.
