so thalia and i made it safe and sound to michigan last friday...i think we were one of only a handful of flights allowed to land that morning! what weather to come back to! saturday my cousin alexis got married to her sweetie stefan...what fun we had!! i have to get some pics from facebook to put on here. she was gorgeous! and aunt steph and i didn't look too bad either ;o) and since going to a wedding isn't enough to do, we went to my aunt and uncle's house for lunch beforehand and had a mini-christmas with them since yiayia and papou were in town.
sunday we had christmas with papou's family - what a feast! thalia got some wonderful presents from her great aunts and uncles. i'll put some pictures up at the end. the rest of the week has been running around getting ready for christmas! yesterday we went to church and had gamma and gampa and aunt jen and uncle walt over for dinner. thalia got her first tractor! then today we had brunch at great-grandpa denhart's and then dinner at great-grandma betty's. what a whirlwind!!
now, it is 915pm and i am just starting to pack for our trip to hawaii. i cannot wait - i really need the break. i'll make sure to take lots of pics of thalia in her swimsuits and in the sand for you.
being back in michigan has been really great and it has been wonderful getting to see everyone. i have been so busy i have forgotten how much fun it is at home. it will be hard to go back to north carolina in a couple weeks...but we'll be okay :o)
we hope you all have a wonderful christmas, that you got to spend some extra time with your loved ones, and that you have a wonderful start to a new year! thanks again for all your love, prayers, and support. thalia would not be as great of a kid as she is without the influence of all of you! we love you!
much, much love and a little sleep,
c, c, and t
