I have been away for a few days.  We travelled to see my inlaws the weekend before Christmas then on Christmas Eve, we travelled to spend it and Christmas with my family.  It was a great time, even though the two families live in complete opposite directions.  We travelled to se my inlaws in Southern California, then to Northern Utah to be with my family.  About 1000 miles of driving. 

I put in the mileage as a way of saying that it was a great time.  It is good to remember what the Holidays are about, and that is family.  Although we had our lap tops and our cell phones, we did little more than answer phone calls.  It is a good thing to take a break from the stresses of work and spend time with those that matter most in our lives.  While it is nearly impossible to completely take a break, doing as much non Real Estate stuff as possible is a way that we found worked for us. 

We do hope that everyone enjoyed a great Holiday!  We also hope that everyone enjoyed a safe Holiday!  For us, it was great to celebrate the birth of the Savior of mankind with our loved ones!
