My partner & I went away for Christmas this year, however the kids were really excited, because it was the first time that we ever spent Christmas away from the house.
All of the children are old enough to know that Santa Claus is Mom & Mom, so we do not have to worry about keeping up with the charade anymore.
This year was the perfect time for my partner & I to take the kids anywhere special… My associate and I decided to rent a vacation apartment about 5 miles away from a mountain ski resort. The kids didn’t know how to go skiing, however we all took lessons together. My associate and I had a lot of fun while in the day. The kids went snow tubing & tried to snowboard. My partner & I went skiing & enjoyed some time at the cottage, however our vacation rental had a fireplace & we tried to use it as soon as we got there. The boiler was running, however the heat was only set at 60°. My associate and I adjusted the boiler control component to 76° & my partner & I started laboring on a fire in the fireplace. The kids brought us some wood & logs from outside. There was no on the ground, however there was a giant stack of firewood on the porch under the awning. My associate and I started a fire in the fireplace & we kept it roaring the whole time that we were there; Between the boiler & the fireplace, the vacation rental was filled with plenty of warm air. My associate and I had such a superb time on vacation that I suppose we will really take the kids anywhere current next year for the holidays.
