Tales of a Castle

1,481.6 miles later,

we're home, and does it feel good!!!! We had a special time with

family,

friends,

family,

more friends,

and then some more family. . .

Okay, you get my point! :-) We arrived back in the far, far away land with hearts full of new memories, bodies craving sleep, a five year old with a cold, and a baby that is in the throes of his first cold. :-( We were around enough sick people that I knew the littlest lad would pick up something. Oh, well. . .here's a prayer that he will not end up with an ear infection. (The older boys have never had one, so I am hoping this guy follows in their steps!)

More pictures later. For now, I want to see your blogs. I've missed them! :-)

Sorry to hear that your baby got a cold. Hope had one a while back, and I was NOT very happy. But, like you said, when they are around other sick children...
I saw a picture of your little boy on someone else's blog, and the picture made him look obese! Is he really THAT chubby! Sooo cute!
Glad you made it back safely!
Love you all!

At 10:34 AM, Lisa R said...: Love your blog, Martha! Know how you feel about getting back home... Jeremy and I made an 8 hr. trip up to PA and back this weekend. 8 hours is not even a drop in the bucket to what you guys traveled, I'm sure!
At 2:45 PM, Martha C said...: We were heading home on the 30th, so the wedding was out of the question.
At 2:51 PM, Martha C said...: My b-day money is still tucked safely in a drawer. . . I discovered there is a store around here that sells refurbished ones, so I'll soon have my new friend.
At 9:25 AM, Lisa R said...: Oh my goodness! I just looked at the old pic of you and me. Those days with Mrs. Birdsall seem sooo long ago! What a picture! That was the time when you, Nancy D. and I couldn't decide how to make a three-some friendship work :-) Weren't we crazy?!
