Hi! I'm not dead (though the illness that went through our office like wildfire made many people wonder about survival), but I have been busy. My family came a visit--love you Mom and Dad. We spent a weekend hanging out in Vail (Yay, gondola. Yay skiing. Yay beautiful mountains) having a great time with S's other Grandparents as well. So, I haven't been around to blog about the craziness that life has been. We've been working hard. We've been playing hard. Now we are planning to have a little break to enjoy the little adventures before we try for the bigger ones again in March/April.
