So we said goodbye to my in-laws today after a nice Christmas visit.  Little did they know that they would be snowbound for almost an entire week!  We’ve now got a day and a half of downtime before my sister and her family come into town for New Year’s.  This year, our kids will be 6.5, 5, 3.5, & 1.5 years old, which should make all of them fully interactive.  Unfortunately for them, they will have missed all the snow (so no sledding down the street).  Although, come to think of it, maybe they don’t mind after having survived a few Boston winters.
