We returned from Costa Rica just in time for Christmas, on the evening of December 23rd. Mom and Dad stayed the night at our house before heading home to WI on Christmas Eve. We squeezed in our Baranko immediate family/ Mackus immediate family/ Baranko extended family / Mackus extended family / our own little family gauntlet in just three days instead of 4. It was a busy and fun time! We are very lucky people.
