Joe and Maria (and some family) left last Friday on a snowmobiling adventure in West Yellowstone. Maria was a trooper during the extremely long truck ride and several days of long snowmobiling rides.
So what did Ems and I do all week while they were on vaction you ask?
This is a snapshot:
Shopping adventures,
Hanging out with old friends,
Make-believe hot tubing (we were jealous of daddy and Maria at the pool everyday),
Em's first go at daycare (which she loved!),
Supper with my parents,
Cuddling in front of the fire (instead of being outside in the negative wind chills)
Lots of playing and reading books,
No laundry,
No washing loads of dishes,
No fighting...
Peace and Quiet.
And even though that quiet was nice for a night or so...
it made me realize even more that
I love our chaotic, crazy nights with my whole family home together. It may be loud, messy, and time seems rushed, but I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world.
I missed my big girl and husband and I'm ready to have a relaxing weekend with them and enjoy the time we have at home together.

So glad that you are all back together again! Yes, those alone times and times without everyone are nice, but they sure do make you appreciate being together as a family.
Glad that everyone survived the week and now you can be cozy at home together.
