Ahh... Home Sweet Home.

So today is Day One of being back home in Austin. Sleeping in our own beds never felt so good, though it surely feels very, very quiet here without background city noise and the night time air conditioners. Mateo has asked about his abuelos a few times today, as we all feel their absence. Rafi and I also both miss the escape from reality. It's been really nice to have Rafi with us for one more day, so we ran some random errands, got Mateo a much needed haircut, and had a "goodbye vacation" lunch at Chuy's. And with that, I think I'll take a day or two off from blogging, because my To Do list is really long and growing longer. A fridge full of old food, furniture covered in dust, a dog hair covered floor, and Christmas decorations all about is only the beginning.
