My my the end of 2010 went by so fast!
We celebrated Thanksgiving in Portland with the usual chaos of bouncing around from house to house to visit all the family. We spent 5 or 6 days total staying at my dad's house. We were busy! Mormor was there and we went and cut down a tree for Grandpa and Grandma's house.
The kids were well behaved and it was a nice break from the busy weeks we have of school and work.
Christmas we made it down to California to visit all the Sanzone and Bangs family. We spent 8 days down there and enjoying it thoroughly. The best part was that the 8 hour drive each way was so calm and easy! No bad weather and the kids were angels. Not what I was expecting but maybe now that they are getting older we can do more long road trips in the future!
Christmas was scaled down this year but the kids were still spoiled and got lots of cool stuff that they were hoping for. On Christmas Eve we got the word from the landlord regarding a house we applied to rent that we were okay to move in! So now thats its January we are in a blur of back to school, back to work, and moving! We are so excited to have a nice yard, deck, and culdesac for the kids to play. We spent the last weekend painting. Mitchell and I have been together for 10 years now and we have never been able to paint the walls wherever we have lived. Its a small touch but its a huge deal for me! I am so excited to make it my own home. Pics to come soon!
