So here is the update.
Christmas happened.
- We did Christmas Eve with Brian's family and his mom's parents. We had a great day and even enjoyed a moon pie or two, courtesy of Jacques.
- Christmas day we woke up early - packed the car - stopped over at Grandma Ohs' house to wish her a very Merry Christmas and then we daringly made the trek up to Elwood's house. Only once did we almost crash - thankfully we arrived without a scratch. We then had a great Christmas meal with Elwood and Ben.
- Next day I spent some time convincing siblings the roads were not 'that bad'. So thankfully everyone decided to come and thankfully everyone made it without a scratch. We spent most of Friday going through ALL of mom's Christmas decorations - that woman really LOVED Christmas. We had the entire basement covered in Christmas. Everyone went home with many pieces of the decorations mom loved so much. After that we enjoyed presents, food and the joys that come with family.
Our we celebrated the coming of the new year quietly and restfully - followed by the harsh return to work. We're still adjusting to working full weeks again - we can't wait for a 4 day week!
