Travel for the last hurrah

The Christmas celebrations came to and end today. I loved our time with my family but am also relieved that there are no more presents to open. I think the kids might even be a little burned out by now. We had a great time in Orion. This weekend was so much less chaotic than most trips back. We spent Christmas day at my parents' house with everyone. The next day we visit Aaron's house (see tomorrow's post) and everyone came over again for pizza. With the kids getting a little bit older, that means less watching and chasing by us. Thank goodness! Maybe next year I'll even be able to participate in games again?

As the Christmas season comes to end, I'd like to reflect on the year. We are so lucky to be surrounded by good health, love and laughter. The holiday season reflects all of this and for that I am grateful.
