We are back in our house now after the kitchen remodel. We spent a little more than a month at my parents' house and it couldn't have gone more smoothly. Everyone is so thankful for having a perfect place to live while out of our home. It was challenging at times because all of our belongings were disorganized, but the kids slept well there, we had good meals there, and plenty of toys to play with! Here are a few pictures during that month that I have on my phone:

4 kids in the bathroom trying to get ready for the day...Hank loved the stool because he felt like a big kid.

We watched the NFL championships one sunday afternoon (hank was into it!) and also had friends over for the Super Bowl. 

We spent lots of time playing in the playroom.

We cuddled on the couch on most mornings to watch Sesame Street for hank or sprout channel for the girls. We had to detox a little on watching tv when we got back home ;) but it was nice to have that on the long winter days when they were out of school for snow, which happened several times during that month.

I walked down the driveway one day because the snow had come fast and I was nervous about getting my car back up the hill.
