Traveling on Christmas Day is new territory for me. Trish the Dish said we did it once, late, a few years ago, flying to some bowl game on Christmas night. But I don’t remember that.
Either way, we definitely haven’t taken off on Christmas morning. But we did Tuesday.
The bowl schedule – a December 29 kickoff for OU-Alabama – meant it was somewhat necessary to be in Fort Lauderdale by Christmas night, and our family schedule actually worked. Haley and the girls were headed to Waco early Thursday morning to be with J.J.’s family, so we got most of our Christmas traditions in Saturday and Monday, so it wasn’t a lump of coal to leave Christmas morning.
