Family Visit Cliff Notes? Not a Chance.

Happy Monday, everyone!  We’ve been busy this week.  Busy recovering from our houseful of company (think mountains of laundry and lots of quality time just sitting around loving each other) and we’ve also all been a bit under the weather.  It may be strange, but I almost like having sick days; they mean lazy days filled with snuggles and movies.  But, aside from our many different degrees of recovery, I’ve also been writing.  I usually have a tendency to just live in the moment and ignore the blog when our little family is having crazy fantastic experiences (think: birthdays and basically every family trip…ever).  These things tend to get glossed over or just skipped in entirety when, sadly, they are the events I want my girls to have some actual account of.  So, I’m trying to do a better job.  I’ve written up this latest family visit in great detail and have backdated the posts to reflect the corresponding dates.  I don’t actually expect everyone who reads this blog to be interested in the minute details of my family’s visit, but I do want my girls to be able to read about it when they’re older.  So, if you’re bored at work or perhaps trying to stay awake while feeding a baby at 3am…these are for you.  Otherwise, I’ll try to post some kind of cliff notes photo album in the near future that somehow manages to make it in under 300 pictures.  Cheers!
