Grandma was in a stable spot and we were helping out with her. \u00a0But after a little bit over a month of spending time with grandma, who has terminal cancer, and grandpa, we are finally back in Ecuador and getting our lives setup here again. \u00a0It was an important month for us as we know that grandma won&#8217;t be with us forever and we wanted to spend good time with her and the rest of the family over the holidays. \u00a0Here are some pictures that show a little bit of our time there.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a
