A Full Weekend In Strasburg

It has been almost a year since I returned "home." Far, far too long to stay away. It always seems something keeps me from visiting.  Partly our busy schedules now that both kids are in school. Party the long travel time. Partly the fact that even 3 years later I still get a little sad thinking about the place I called home for so long.

But, this weekend, we weren't sad--not even a little. And for the first time since we moved out, we were able to stay for more than a day!

When we visit, usually I drive the kids and myself down for the day. We drive the 2.5 hours in the early morning, and head back in the evening. Usually on a Sunday so we can see the most people we love.

This time, our great and wonderful friends (who are more like family) the Mozingo's, insisted that we stay with them.

Since the wedding is at 5pm, I knew it would be a late night driving back, and while I wouldn't usually stay and burden anyone, I took them up on their offer.

And, I am glad I did.

I could type and type for hours about all we did, but I will just say it was a wonderful, wonderful weekend full of fun and surprises and so much love.  So much love that I needed to refill my "cup" with.

So many thanks to Tom and Colette and Mallory for sharing their home, their food, their watchful eyes, and their unending supply of love for me and my crazy children.
