Haven't "posted" since we went home last weekend -- very fun! (And it felt so good to be on familiar soil... traffic jams and all!) We left here at the crack of dawn on Friday morning and headed straight for Gina and Kip's (and Oliver's) :) It probably wasn't the best idea to get into the city at 3:30 pm on a Friday afternoon of a Cubs game, but we survived. After a quick visit and some photo-ops with the new baby (very cute...they'll probably keep him...) :), we headed out to Cary to see Frank's parents and his uncle who was also in town. It was so nice to be there surrounded by people and laughing and eating and just doing what we used to do. We spent the night in Cary, had a leisurely morning at a neighborhood park (beautiful weather!), and left there shortly after lunch.
From cary, we headed to the Hilts for a (belated) birthday celebration for Kathryn and Lindsey - Ellie and Nathan seemed more than pleased to be in another familiar setting (with familiar toys!) We were there until way past their bedtimes, so I think a good time was had by all! (After 6 or 7 hours of party fun, nobody even put up too much of a fuss when it was time to go...) On Sunday morning, we went to the Arboretum - they have a nice children's garden, and again, we left shortly after lunch time. It was a whirlwind weekend, but very fun! And we made great time on the way back to omaha - 7 hours with a stop for dinner - and they both slept for 2 hours along the way - can't complain! We might even drive it again sometime!
We have been spoiled by all of out visitors here and our visit home -- maybe Omaha isn't so bad afterall!
