Back From the Sun City

We will start with fun:

As you can tell because of the lack of posts, we have been away. We got back last night from El Paso after spending the week there for Thanksgiving. We had a really great time. We got a chance to spend a lot of time with the family and some of my friends. Sunday after we arrived my mom had the whole clan over for a little party (Clan being my brothers and sisters and their families) My nieces and nephews are all becoming giants. It is slightly scary. I was chatting with one of my little nephews who is in 6th grade this year. He looked at me ever so seriously and asked, "How tall was I when you met me?" It made me giggle inside and I told him, "Jonathan, I met you the day you were born!" he responded with.. "oh...well...then.....how tall was I at your wedding?" So I showed him and he seemed much more pleased with that answer.

Me and all my nieces! Including my great (grand?) niece (the littlest one)

All the Siblings - We are like the Brady Bunch!

The rest of the week we spent buying some last minute stuff for the move, seeing as many friends and more of the family as we could and tried to take it easy. We saw everyone on our list that we had wanted to see before we left (except for one of my nephews) but our list was pretty big and I was impressed we got to everyone and even got to see some people Multiple times! We were both pretty under the weather as well. Something about the EL Paso air whether the pollution or the dust from the desert I don't know, but we were both yucky. We didn't get anything done for the move that we had hoped to (calling to cancel stuff, changing our address with the post office... Boring stuff like that) but oh well. Just another thing to add to our list of stuff for Monday and Tuesday.

We got back home last night and as we landed we both took a deep breathe as we got ready for our last little push here. The next few days are going to be BUSY BUSY BUSY! We just have to make it to Wednesday at 6 pm and then we can relax for a bit.
