So in the end it was for love of the blog (Patrick's love that is) that we deiced today to re-subscribe to the internet. It is a little silly that he should be so sad about the lack 'o blog, given that he just happens to live with the little people it chronicles, but we all find our joy in different places. So as I noted in my brief post (via phone) I will be going in and filling in the gaps of the last few months over the next week or so. But first a few current events.
We have been in full prep for Christmas mode these past few weeks. I think we are all just a little bit more into it this year than usual because we missed so many of the little traditions last year when we went to Hawaii. Last Thursday (in the evening after traveling over 900 miles total Tuesday - Thursday (Lake Havasu, Safford and Phoenix..oh my!) but being home every night) we took the girls to Zoo lights so the could meet up with the S-Man. Evie led Izzy to the encounter and Izzy didn't even cry, although she was a bit suspicous at first. Evie asked for a sewing machine and when we asked Izzy what she was going to ask Santa for she replied "Christmas" I feel quite confident that both girls will get what they are asking for!
This weekend we went out and got our tree. Evie helped me decorate it and it looks absolutely lovely as the sole piece of furniture in our still unfurnished front room. We may just have to keep it past Christmas....
