Home and Away

we've all been 

coming and going 

so much lately..

i can't keep up.

stephen flew home

late saturday night

from vienna.

he had an amazing few

days of baseball

and eating schnitzel.

paris won the silver medal!

and stephen also

made

"all tournament"

which was quite an honor.

what a great experience

for him..

to travel with his team to a 

different country..

stay with a host family

and play lots of baseball.

we're so proud of you buddy.

early sunday morning

steve and hannah flew 

in from boston.

she hadn't been home 

in over 3 weeks.

it's so good to have her back.

she's feeling better

and will try and return

to school tomorrow.

sunday night

we decided to go out 

to dinner as a family

as it was the first time

(and last time for a while)

that we'll all be together.

we went to the latin quarter

and had a great meal.

we walked along the seine

and saw the most beautiful

pink paris sky.

i kept saying to steve..

i wish i brought my camera!

and he said..

just enjoy the moment.

and i did.

but i still wish i had my camera.

very early monday morning

will left with his 5th grade class

for a field trip to brittany, france.

he'll be gone until friday night.

i miss him so much!

but i'm loving the experiences 

he's having and thankful

for the daily updates and pictures

from his teachers.

yesterday they were sailing

and walking along the beach

collecting crabs

and visiting a beautiful chateaux! 

looking forward to friday night

when we'll all be together again..

just for that one night..

as stephen flies to crete, greece 

saturday for a week! 

i am so thankful

for the opportunities

that my children are having!

and so thankful

that hannah is well and home.
