traditions.

i am strong believer in telling stories through photographs... it is such an interesting way to learn about others and their traditions, especially relating to the holidays.
one of the greatest things my parents did for my sister elsie and i was to create little traditions for us and our small family of four. thanksgiving is the culmination of so many of those traditions as we prepare for the christmas season. our christmas tree which is decorated the day after thanksgiving is the story of the four of us... ornaments from friends, other relatives, as well as an ornament from every place that we've been to in the world... hope this gives you a little bit of the palacios story.

first time grandparents hanging the first ornament with their grandson....
brother-in-law or creepy man behind christmas tree?
out of order: this is from thanksgiving... this is my cousin emily (she'll be six years old this next week)
from the outside looking in.

i want my nephew to know that his aunt was not the photographer who did this to him... it was his abuela instead.
nothing like getting your christmas tree in 70 degree weather... oh south florida.

Happy Holidays!!
