We're back

Janine and our oldest two daughters returned from girls camp about ten days ago. We had the weekend to rush though a ton of laundry, then Monday morning we loaded up and flew off to Janine's niece's wedding. When Janine and I got married sixteen years ago this niece was just seven or eight years old. My how time flies.

Last week was fun. Around the wedding we also spent time with family. It was fun to see some cousins.

For our daughters the highlight of many trips is swimming in the hotel pool. This was no exception. We stayed a couple days at a Marriott's Residence Inn and swam several times.

We returned home late Friday evening. Air fares are cheaper on July 4th. We returned home exhausted. Monday night our foster care boy woke up around midnight and wouldn't go back to sleep till 5:00 AM. Janine and I never quite recovered.

It is wonderful to be home. We cleaned up the house some on Saturday and did another ton of laundry. We've had a couple good nights of sleep and are almost back to normal.

I'll head off to work in a bit. Our oldest starts a three week band camp today. Our younger two plan to read a lot of book. Saturday the youngest checked out several Fox Trot and For Better or Worse books.

It is fun to travel, and it is good to be home.
