Our family spent three days in Durango, Colorado last week, celebrating our 11 year anniversary with the kids. Unlike last year, when I was very pregnant over our anniversary, I was unencumbered in my sushi consumption this time--a highlight of our trip to Durango (that was disastrous the last time we took the kids.) To our surprise, three days with four children jeeping, shopping, hiking, swimming, eating out, and staying up late turned out to be a true blessing. And as my sweet husband and I celebrated over lunch alone when we returned home, we gave thanks for a blessed 11 years, and set goals for the years to come.
