Last October, my entire family was able to be together. I have three siblings, and we all have families of our own. Two of my siblings live in AZ, and two of us don't, so having everyone together happens only every few years. On this trip, due to conflicting work schedules, we would have one dinner with everyone together at my parents house, and then in Mexico, we would have literally 12 hours where every single person would overlap. We will take what we can get and cherish it!!

I knew that I had to bring my camera, and I knew that for Christmas, I was going to make my parents a film or two. Rocky Point, Mexico is a 4.5 hour drive from Tucson. It is one of my favorite places on the planet. I've been going there since before I could walk and I truly think it is a piece of heaven. We sail, fish, paddle board, kayak, hunt for shells, swim, eat. It's the best.

I love everyone in this film so much and I am so grateful to be a part of this family.
