We woke up yesterday, and all thoughts were on home. We were missing our children, and all of our house projects were back in the forefront of our mind. So, after some relatively quick last minute sightseeing, we were on our way back to the in-laws. We had an uneventful trip and got to the house around 6:00, so we got to spend a couple of quality hours with the kids, which was awesome. Barney's spirits came back, and it was wonderful to watch his ongoing interactions with the kids and his family. We will be headed home in separate cars today so that we can bring home a new buffet that we bought in New Orleans.
So, it's going to be a long five hours, but I can't wait to get home! We should be leaving very soon, and our last opportunity for R&R before Jefferson gets here will nothing but a memory. I think that had Marshall not ended up going, we would likely have cancelled the trip due to all of our house activities, but I am so glad that we went. Even with the slightly disappointing day, it was good to have some time away from all that has consumed us in the past few weeks. I hope that Barney and I reconnected in a variety of ways, and I believe that we did.
There doesn't seem to be any such thing as a pretty free week for us anymore, and this coming week is no exception. But, I feel pretty rejuvenated and ready to tackle our projects again :)
