So, we got back last night from our 11 day trip to CA to visit "the fam". This is a loaded statement, since there is so much "fam" to visit. Eric and I love our family dearly, but trying to cram in a "year's worth" of get togethers in one visit just isn't possible... We do our best to make our "visit" time as fair as possible, but someone always gets the short end of the stick. Thanks to everyone for being so understanding about it! Maybe next year we'll make a "pie chart" of our time and show it to everyone so it's fair! Thanks to my mom and dad for once again providing the "Rossiter Hotel". Most days, we get up, shower, eat breakfast, take off for an adventure with someone else, stay out late, come back around ten pm and then crash and sleep just to repeat the cycle all over again the next day! Visiting the family is exhausting to say the least, but always worth it! When it was all said and done, we logged over 2200 miles in 11 days! I have a Suburban and you don't even want to know what my gas bill was for this trip, especially with gas costing $3.50 in Ca right now! More on our travel adventures tomorrow... today is a day for laundry and catching up on life at home.... oh the mail pile I have to sort through!
