Hi there digi world! I have misssseeeedddd you! We are home safe and somewhat sound from our trip to see our dear friends Melissa (Missys3lilbugs) and her clan! We had a BLAST! Man oh man...I wish I could go on and on and on. But...while exciting to me...it would probably bore you to tears, lol.

We got there and after some initial shyness...the boys took up like the last year never happened. They played and played and played. The sound of their laughter still is ringing in my ears (is there any sound sweeter than a child's laugh???)

And speaking of boys taking up and thouroughly enjoying each other's company...the BIG boys (My hubby and Greg) were in heaven too,lol. The big lugs totally have missed each other and had a blast too. They went to a few bars on the way to the hardware store...they played with Greg's new snowblower...they gamed on playstation...they talked and talked and talked....they fixed up their sound system...just hung out.

Missy and I actually got away a couple times too...shopped and hung out and had a blast.

We went to the Mall of America!!! The boys had a blast...went to all the rides...Rain Forest Cafe...the aquarium. Man that place is HUGE!!!!!!!!!!!!! wwwooowww.

All in all...it was a freakin awesome vacation and I miss them like crazy. You would think we would get on each other's nerves but it went so smoothly!

Here are some random pics from our trip....haven't fixed them up in PS yet.



Here is a freebie for you....from a layout I did. You don't have to keep the title...but thought I would leave it on for you in case you wanted it. You can also change the font (btw it is arial bold round).


ok...off to clean up the house and do tons of laundry and put things away. ughhhh the worst part of a vacation, eh?

hugs
Tracy

Glad you're back safe and sound. It sounds like you all had a blast. I really liked the photo of all the boys in one bed. You just have got to make a layout with that. It's so funny. And thanks for the freebie, I'll include it in tomorrow's list, (sorry it wasn't online when I checked earlier). I'm gonna use it right now. Thanks again, sweetie. It's nice to have you back.
