Life of the Party

So I have come to the realization on how truly blessed we are. We have many of people that are so dear to us that live so far away that our time is so precious when we are able to see them. And for five years it was very lonely for me..... Now we live in this fabulous neighborhood that has so many amazing families living in it and all with kids close to the ages of the boys. Tonight for an example we had a front yard bar-be-que with 13 adult and 16 children (with the oldest 3 being six!!!) Wow!

Lance and I are still amazed at how many people we have become friends with in the past 2 years, most of which we have met out in front of our house. I now know the true meaning of "it takes a village" we all watch out for each other and are forever there to lend a hand with any situation. So for all of our loved ones so far away... I have finally found peace of not being close to "home" in my everyday adventure in mothering.
