We decided to come home on Saturday due to weather and just wanting one more day to get stuff done in Idaho Falls. We really enjoyed our visit with all of Trent's family. several of his Aunts and Uncles came and it was great to get to see so many of you. It has truly been to long, for some it had been as much as 5 years since our last seeing each other.
The Children got some awesome loot from Santa! They got the one big thing they each asked for and some little things that they had been eying the past few months. I really enjoyed the message that our children got this year and am really contemplating changing the way we do Christmas in the future. I loved that we were able to focus on the Birth of Christ for Christmas day and that we did not hassle with the gifts until the weekend. It was the first time I think both the older children really understood the reason for the season.
Well we came home to mountains of snow... It looks like we are heading for a big winter here again, but this is sooner than last year, it took til February to get mountains of snow like this last year... I wonder what is in store now.
I am really feeling well, my incisions look good and except for some diet changes to make digesting foods easier (gas and runnies) I love that I am not hurting anymore. I will meet with the surgeon in the next few weeks to go over what the biopsy showed and hopefully it is all good and we can be done with this chapter of my life... I do not love being sick. I am enjoying the weight loss that I am having and it has given me some real incentive to loose weight this year. I just want to feel healthier. I have already started modifying my diet and am going to start going to the gym in the next few weeks, when the doctor clears me. Here is to a skinnier me!
When I find my camera, I will post pictures of our trip. It may take a few days to get the house sorted, I forgot how sick and medicated I have been, I can not find Trent's socks... I am not sure where I put them away but I remember folding a lot of socks the day before I went to the hospital... huh... no idea what I did there. I am not sure where a few things are to be honest.. looks like I will be finding things in the next week! :)
I am excited for Trent to be able to return to work and the two older children to return to school... we all need space!
