Back From My Trip

I got back from my week-long trip late Friday. Been spending the weekend remembering how to be a husband and daddy. Blogging has taken a back seat as a result.

Went to a dinner party that my friends and I occasionally throw. I don’t think I’ve had that kind of fun in a long, long time. It was a great way to recharge my batteries. My parents did the kid-sitting for us. It was nice to see them, too.

Yesterday was the anniversary of my grandmother’s death. She had been on my mind yesterday (and many days before, to be truthful). She’s still missed, that’s for sure. At the end of this week, we travel to Delaware for the service for Kelly’s grandmother, who died several days ago.

We had a fun afternoon spent playing Christmas music together. Kelly broke out her flute, I played guitar and piano (though not simultaneously), Hallie played harmonica and Travis sang. It was a blast! We hope to make a regular thing of it.

Time to update a few more blogs, then off to bed to face yet another week of work.
