LJ Shootout Week 17-19?
At any rate, it's the 17th prompt, and we had three weeks to complete it. How do we celebrate the holidays (or not)?
Greg and I flew to Oklahoma to visit my family.
On Xmas day, we went to see a movie (True Grit!) and then to Tally's diner in Tulsa for dinner with my mother and her husband.

My stepfather is wearing a scarf my mother crocheted for him. Aw.
24 mm, 1/30, f/4, ISO 800
Then it was off to my aunt's home in Oklahoma City for the night. She took us for a drive over to Chesapeake Energy, where she works, to enjoy the extravagant display.

We got back to Sapulpa in time to greet my stepbrother's family, just arrived from DC, so we took all the kids to the Tulsa Aquarium. KC "made a bond" with this turtle, he said.
35 mm, 1/15, f/4.0, ISO 1600
Finally, the night before I flew back to NYC, I had a chance to catch up with old friends at a downtown beer hall.

The holidays are for fellowship, after all.
It was a very good year.
