Hello 20 Thirteen

Crazy, but I had originally had two posts set up to be published while we were away on our holiday vacation, but forgot to schedule them. {Thwacks head} Let's just say, I've had a very, very busy past few weeks. I rounded out 2012 packing, laundering, and getting my family of four up and out of the Bay Area to head to much colder temps. And boy, was it cold over there! I'm a California girl at heart, always will be. 

We had a blast spending some quality time with family. Micro and Micron had so much fun playing with their cousins, it was Christmas everyday for them. Flurries of snow graced us the day before and after Christmas. Imagine my surprise when I woke up after a day of gift opening to see some snow on the ground. Beautiful. 

Our week-long stay in the east coast was a lot of fun. As soon as we arrived back, we had "second Christmas," opening all the gifts from my family and friends from nearby. The very next day, we had my cousin and his wife (newlyweds) stay a few days with us as they travel around for their honeymoon. Suffice to say, we've been on the go since. I hardly noticed 2013 coming at me. Below are some pics of our adventures as of late. 

I just want to thank you dear readers for visiting my little space here on the worldwide web. I hope you all had a wonderful 2012 and that 2013 will bring you even more joy, hope, love, and laughter. Right now, things have quieted down a bit, so I'm going to enjoy just watching my two babies sleep.
