I have to say that I consider myself to be very blessed when it comes to my family and friends. I have a wonderful husband and four amazing kids that I honestly enjoy hanging out with 24/7...we are all pretty compatible when it comes to our likes and dislikes. We all enjoy our quiet time as much as we enjoy visiting with people. That has worked well for us because we homeschool...if my kids needed people each and every day it would not have worked.
I just returned from visiting my sister. We are all stiff and sore (sorry Linda) from crashing on the floor or on sofas, but it was definitely worth it. I try to get down there whenever I can because I really adore my sister! Her house is amazing and the kids had so much fun swimming in her pool. There were moments when I could have pulled my hair out...but Linda and I managed to squeeze in moments late at night or when we finally sneaked away for supper late one evening.
This has been such a good year in that my brother and sister in-law returned from living out west and have settled back here with their two beautiful kids Kristen and Mathew. I adore them and consider myself lucky to have this opportunity to get to know them. We didn't realize how much we had missed them all until they came back home!
Here is a video of ella dancing at my sister's house...I think she looks lovely!

We loved having you and we really appreciate the effort! I know myself it can be a looong drive and lots of work packing and unpacking. We're making memories though, and that's what counts. Sorry about the sleeping arrangements...I wish I had a bigger house!!
Love you all,
Linda
Thanks for having us...I know we add extra work, but it really is worth it...we had so much fun and ella keeps asking to go back!
