There’s nothing quite like time spent with family to wash away the day’s stresses…to heal the days woes. I’ve got a lot on my plate right now, and the day was pretty difficult. But in the evening, I got to pick Nathan up at the MAX station, and head over to my parents’ house where the rest of the family was waiting. Uncle Greg and Auntie Shaina are visiting!
Elias had an absolute blast playing with his Uncles and Aunties (and Ama and Baba). He was getting piggy-back rides galore, wrestling with his Uncles, and Uncle Scott was even schooling him in how to sneak peeks at presents unbeknownst to the rest of us until it was too late!
My dad made his famous turkey soup for dinner and it warmed me up in body and soul. Simon even had a playmate because Jenny and Ethan came over too! We’ve got to cherish this time together because it will go by too fast, and who knows the next time we’ll all be together! Here are some pictures for fun:
