Home for the Holidays

I decided after five, read it, five home trips in 2011 I would only go home once in 2012.  This resulted in people coming to visit me and me being able to do some traveling myself.  So my one and only trip to the good ol' USA was for Thanksgiving to Seattle where my sister and her family live.  Once my mom and dad found out I was spending Thanksgiving in Seattle they too decided they were coming.

It ended up being a really great trip home with some much needed family time.  My sister and I were able to take a whole day just the two of us visiting and shopping (thanks again Brent for watching the kids!) before mom and dad arrived.  Once my mom and dad arrived, the three of us moved into the condo we had rented for the week thus not over crowding my sister and her family.

All in all we had a great week of laughing and visiting and eating and playing.  We all went to an indoor trampoline center where Aislin and Cadel (and the adults) had a blast jumping.  We went down to the Seattle Space Needle where the Chihuly glass exhibit is on permanent display.  And we celebrated Aislin's 5th birthday a few days early.
