This is why we moved to Spokane. Or one big reason out of the dozen. A long weekend in Yahk. A short drive to spend quality time with my family. Holly and Greta loved it. And I loooooved not feeling stressed about fitting in as much bonding time as possible. It's so nice to be able to feel a little more mellow about family time! That's a major win in my books.
We met my sister's baby, Theia, the girls played with all the pets, Holly and Greta had morning cuddles with their grandparents, wheelbarrow rides from Gramps, story telling, playing with fire, we spent time with my Aunt and Uncle, Uncle Peter gave Holly and mani/pedi, we played games, etc... It was like it wasn't even cold and rainy!
It was a weekend I needed to affirm that we did the right thing. Because let's face it, moving is no joke!
