We spent a long weekend in Iowa, while Seth made his yearly journey to Vegas with the guys.
As always, it was a whirlwind trip. From start to finish took 70 hours and in that time (and in no particular order) we:
Drove 4 hours there,
Visited 2 sets of great grandparents,
2 sets of grandparents,
(I forgot to get pics with the other 3 sets)
played with two second cousins,
(one was on my dad's side, one on my mom's side)
I spent time with two friends,
(this rarely happens - think once every 2 years!)
spent the night at my mom's then my dad's then my mom's,
watched 3 basketball games - 2 of which did not turn out good,
pet horses and dogs and a cat,
took a handful of photos,
went shopping with my step-mom,
went to church,
drove 4 hours home,
And then 4 hours after we got home, we had our small group study at church.
I. Am. Tired.
...and some people wonder why I don't come up more often.

ReplyDeleteI know you were sad about the Wildcats :(
least they did better than my Jayhawks!
I totally hear you!! We get the same questions when we don't want to travel all.over.the state of Texas. on our once a year, only 3 wks long trip from Brazil to the US. Sorry folks, but if you are more than say, 2 hours from our home base, you need to come to us!
ReplyDeleteGlad you had a good trip, though!
Amen! My family always wants me to come and spend the weekend with them when my husband is out of town and I am always just too exhausted at even just the thought. But usually the chance to make memories wins out...
ReplyDeleteSo glad to meet you!
