Here's hoping we can end the year with a sound and impressive Michigan victory in the College Football Playoff Semi-finals against TCU in the Fiesta Bowl.
These are two very happy girls with their happy Pepaw. We sold Caroline and Lee Lee's dollhouse back in Rifle, and they understood the reason why. We discussed it with them and we told them it was very possible they could get a new dollhouse when we moved to Rangely.
Fastforward 7 months and 2 moves later, Lee Lee got a dollhouse for Christmas, and Caroline got dolls for Christmas, and Pepaw and Daddy spent several hours last night putting the house together.
These girls are incredibly excited about the new house and the new dolls to go with it -- and it gets to be in their bedroom!
I really did not intend to be MIA this week, so rest assured, everything is well here.
We had a wonderful family vacation at Great Wolf Lodge in Arizona where temperatures were 70* warmer than they were at home in Rangely.
I got sick our first day there and the illness has snaked its way through every member of the family and we STILL are not well yet, but we are fine.
Despite some sickness, we had a ton of fun at Great Wolf Lodge, we came home and prepared for Christmas, we had a relaxing Christmas Eve with movies and French Onion Soup (no church this year because we were still sick), and then a joyful, family-filled Christmas Day.
Hubby's parents will arrive tonight and, again, we still are not well (I am not well yet, and it is ROUGH) but we are taking advantage of the vacation days to rest more, play games, take it easy, and prepare for our twins' birthdays coming up on January 1st.
