Christmas at the Beach!

This was the first Christmas to not have Ryan home with us. The newlyweds will join us next year for Christmas. Just can't wait! This year we felt like we needed to do something completely different so we wouldn't have the blues without Ryan and Lauren. We enjoyed our journey to the beach and home again. We went to Panama Beach in Guanacaste. It was a 4 hour drive from home and we enjoyed every moment with Renee. It is all about Jesus, not traditions! We learned that principle again.
The first stop we made was in Monteverde where we didn't realize the land included LARGE creatures!
