The long road home

After arriving at their house late Saturday night, we spent all day Sunday with Jeff's brother, Jeremy, and his family in Colorado.  The kids, once again, had a great time with cousins we hadn't seen in far too long.  Unfortunately, we didn't pull out the camera until bedtime and those pictures could be used as blackmail so I won't publish them here!  Jeremy and Krista treated us to homemade burritos that equal anything you can order in a fancy restaurant.  Yummy!!!!  Then, as if that wasn't enough, we had homemade cookies-and-cream ice cream for a bedtime snack.  Just what we needed to gear us up for another day of fast food in the van! 

Our drive home on Monday wasn't bad as far as 1000+ mile drives go with 8 people in a van.  We drove through a fierce thunderstorm about 45 minutes from home, but we still made it home in good time to find everything as it should be.   Total trip miles:  4146.8.  It's good to be home!
