Getting Very Close...

We have been out of our house for nearly 4 months. We were hoping to move back in this weekend, but that didn't work out. I am optimistic that we will move in next weekend. We'll see. Jill's parents have been incredible, letting us stay with them for the past four months. Thank you, Scott and Ann.

During the time that we've been gone, I have not done a single post. A lot has happened over the last few months. I'm not going to try to catch up all at once. But I will try to do several posts over the next week or so to hit the highlights. We'll start with Christmas.

The girls had lots of chances to tell Santa what they wanted for Christmas. It seemed like he visited our little community quite a few times in the weeks before Christmas. (Don't be fooled by Sadie's face in the pics. She loves Santa. She just hasn't gotten the whole "smile" thing down yet.)

Jill also got to dress them in lots of cute christmas clothes.

We got to spend time with Jill's family

And presents.
