The Volks' Wagon

Still here!

Well, I guess I should say:

Back!

After a week in Kansas for my brother's wedding, a few days at home, four days in Greeley for one of Daniel's best friend's wedding, back home for less than 24 hours to clean and pack, four days in Nebraska's panhandle for a family trip, we are officially back home (for a week), with house guests for the next couple of days.  Whewwww. 

When I plan months like this, I always think it'll be no big deal... and then I've actually got to plow through.  For the most part, it has been a blast with some great memories.  This definitely doesn't include the fact that Colette's runny nose made her easily throw up anything she ate in the car, resulting in three or four vomits during the trip (nope, I didn't learn... no stomach bug, and, seriously, a handful of cheerios or the like is the easiest way to distract a baby who hates to travel... unless she throws them up, of course). 

So, yeah, there have been, and will probably will continue to be, some small panic attacks until the next two trips/weddings (including one that requires 13.5 hours of driving to get there) are over.  But, it will all be lovely memories in a few months, right?  Right?!  No, really, it's good stuff.  I'm glad we're doing it... I think.
