Thanksgiving, Christmas, Back together!

Come on Vamanos, everybody lets go, come on lets get to it, I know that we can do it!

Downhill riding. I am feeling better to hear that the house is taken care of and thankful for all the helpers that are wiling to serve us while we are away. We are truly blessed to have had many good people around that for some reason like us despite our weirdness, and awkward graces. I am trying to think of a way to say thank you and may just have to settle on cards.
The kids seem to be doing alright. It is getting colder and colder so it seems like such a warm sunny day when it is 37 out. No  snow yet but I did see a snowflake when I was in Cranston last week. I know it is coming. I am excited for a few extra days off next week although now we have to fill them with exciting things. We are going to go to Kalispell on Thursday and spend a few day with your parents, it will be nice to have a change of scenery for a minute.

I am trying not to be too ready to go back home but I am definitely counting the weeks. I feel like this is a perpetual vacation and isn't really our life. It is nice to share in the lives of family but besides the kids I don't have a lot of purpose or responsibility to do anything. I am inspired to go home and dejunk our house for the hundredth time. I am definitely feeling the less is so so much more vibe as of late. I appreciate all the kindness we have been shown. It is a huge deal for Mom, Dad, and Adrien to make space for so many of us. We definitely run the show here just by sheer numbers and they have kindly not complained too much. I feel like it will just get worse as we are cramped inside over the winter and the kids can't get out and play as much. I need to be more creative in my distraction techniques.

I am glad you will be getting back to work soon. I know it is best to keep busy and moving those weeks along. I love to see you each night and am so grateful for FaceTime even if it is a big pain sometimes.

I suppose I should get back to the kids as I am just letting them roam and Grandma is taking care of them at the moment. I suppose I should go be a mom even though I am thankful for the help that is alway close at hand.

Some day soon we can say...

We did it, we did it, we did it, we did it!
We spent a lot of time away, but didn't go crazy We did it!
We came back together and more in love each day, We did it We did it We did it We did it.
We Did It!!!
