Love this post! Time with family really is the BEST time, isn't it.
Did you catch Rock Star last night? I thought of you when I was watching it. If you didn't catch last night make sure you watch tonight, it's EXCELLENT!
High Five to Jeff for watching World Cup soccer. You guys can come to Europe any time! OLÉ, olé, olé. olé!
Wonderful post of a great family week-end. Lisa is right on about Rock Star - they are all sooo good.
Deborah, what lovely lists! and the photo is precious. Sounds as though you've had a wonderful visit. Bless you and your family.
OK....I'm going to guess that Jeff likes the new grill for bratwursts, and not bratty kids LOLOL! Just HAD to say that.... Sarah
