Thank You

With the holiday season right around the corner we decided to thank everyone who has been so wonderful in our lives over the past few months and who we couldn't have taken this journey without!

It's been almost 5 months since Elliot was born and we've had a ton of support from people who do not work at Dartmouth, but who have helped just as much to get us to this wonderful place.  Our family, friends, co-workers, neighbors, and blog followers have been on this journey with us the entire time.

Family - we have the best two families anyone could ask for and Elliot is so lucky to have such wonderful grandparents and aunts/uncles/cousins who care about him, from cleaning our house for 2 full days before we came home (mb, katie, michele, seamus and verna), to cooking non-stop meals and delivering them every week while we were in Dartmouth (even taking our laundry back and forth!), to housing Liberty for almost 3 straight months (we are working on getting her back to her old dog food now!), to gathering all the baby stuff we needed to get before Elliot came home, and for driving at least 2 times a week to see us up and back on awful route 89 we THANK YOU.

Neighbors - thanks for watching our home, for not getting upset when our grass got to long and the leaves were not raked.  Thanks for welcoming us back to the neighborhood when Elliot finally came home and thanks for always checking in on us.

Friends - such wonderful folks who have called, come by, brought food and gift for Elliot, emailed, texted and just welcomed us back to our "normal" lives!    

Bloggers - thanks to all of you for following us and for scolding me when we go more than a week with no updates, I realize you all enjoy the photos and updates from us and i'll try to keep on top of it now!

This holiday season we will celebrate how lucky we are to have Elliot in our lives and we hope that your holiday season is just as wonderful.  Thank you all again and enjoy this special time of year with your families and friends.
