Winter Retreat : 1000 Gifts

The kids and I just spent a week with my parents is sunny Florida. Reaching the Beltway in the sleet and darkness of Friday rush hour, we looked back and named a few favorite gifts from our winter retreat.

So, we add again to our list of endless gifts...

Warm days spent outside.

1288
Volunteering with Mema at school. (Hannah)

Quiet, lazy days... for us anyway... my parents would not likely call these days quiet.



1291
Big family dinners.
