We're Back!

We made it home!

Cydney drove almost the entire trip. She is doing a great job. I realized last night that the problem we were having is I am not used to issuing instructions while someone is driving! While on the other hand she is waiting for me to give me approval before she pulls out or changes lanes, etc. etc. So today we both did better!

We went to Eric and Andreas house for the weekend. We had so much fun. The acted like they were glad to see us! We went to Gulf Shores to an amusement park type thing for Breannas birthday. After several hours there and about $100.00 later we headed to the Alabama Gulf Coast Zoo, they have a show on the Animal Planet. It was closed due to weather so I was disappointed but I don't think the children cared either way. After that they decided to play Putt-Putt and we were all having a big time until JB hit Breannas friend in the eye with the golf club. Andrea is in the medical field, speech therapy, and she could help you if you were having a heart attack or went into a diabetic coma but the sight of blood and she is useless! After we got the little disaster taken care of we ended up at the Cracker Barrel.

I thought I was disfunctional with my children but the Pointers have me beat! They hold Walker all night long so they all can sleep. I guess I would have to if that is what it took.

We left on time this morning and now we are home and doing laundry. We have bible school in the morning and the children are all looking forward to that. I was going to stay at the beach but they wanted to come home. Brian worked in the yard this afternoon while Cydney and I cleaned the porch up from the cats! Bad idea to get them!

I guess that is a quick summary of our week gone around the world! I am having second thoughts about driving to Canada but I really, really want to see our friends.

With the risk our sounding like Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz, There's no place like home!
