Leaving home is not easy, but when love of family calls, we love to answer!
It's a flying trip, four days of driving in a five-day journey. I had my younger daughter and my daughter-in-law for company most of the way. Tomorrow I make my way home alone.
I enjoyed worshiping with Anna and Gramm, and a covered dish meal afterward. Check out the gorgeous wooden table their church uses to serve the food!
We also stayed at an Air B&B owned by Gramm's family that is super cool, the Blues Hound Flat.
Today I'm resting at Philip and Kara's house before the long drive tomorrow. We tootled up to the mountain to see the renovation work they've done to the college's old building, Carter Hall.
Time with my children comes too seldom, passes too fast, and is more precious as the years pass. Now a sweet grandbaby is added, soon to be born, and how that will complicate things! I can't wait.

What a cute baby bump! :) It was a beautiful shower! Drive safely!
I enjoyed seeing these pictures. You have beautiful daughters.
The shower looks to have been great...the food, the gifts
( mostly blue??) now you have the long trip driving back. Travel safely.
Wow, that does sound like a strenuous outing. Will you listen to something on the way home, or just enjoy the scenery?
Shower looks and sounds like a wonderful time. So nice that you were able to spend time with your kids.
Have a safe trip home!
One of the first times I read your blog you and Julia had been in the local bookstore and had walked into the country, all with the travelling Rat and Mole on their worldwide tour! How spectacular she is now - as are you all! It amazes me how life moves so beautifully on. Thank you for sharing your journey in blogland; I love it!
Grand babies - the best gift of a full life well lived.
Beautiful photos and congratulations,
