We are back and Happy Holidays!

I did not mean to take such a long time off from posting.  We have had a such a crazy schedule the past few weeks, as I am sure most of you can also relate.   We had a huge surprise for the boys on Thanksgiving night.  My mom flew in from the States to surprise the boys.  They had no idea that she was coming!  It was so funny to watch their little faces try to process what was going on.  There were a lot of very confused looks for a few minutes before an eruption of smiles and giggles.  I'll post more about my mom's whirlwind week in Thailand later.

This time of year flies by so fast.  It seems like it is October to New Years in the blink of an eye.  I have so much to share with all of you and my hopes for our very low key winter break is to catch up on all that has been happening here. I still have to tell you about my two weeks in Europe from this past summer!  Last year, you may remember we had a massive surprise for Christmas. (Read here about our Christmas gift to the boys.  It was something I never imagined would ever be able to happen!)  This year, we decided it was time to take a break,  catch our breath, and just spend some much needed quality time together.  As much as I love traveling, I was really needing a little break.

I hope you are all enjoying this holiday season, really taking it all in, and not letting the busyness consume you. I will be back with  more in the next few week, but for now I will leave you with our Christmas card for this year.  Happy Holidays from all of us!
