We are back in Kansas

We got back to highlands NC last Monday but we had limited internet hence the lack of blogging. After a week of being in the mountains again we have now returned to our home. Even though it was a great break it feels good to be home again. I am looking forward to seeing so many people who I love and missed.  Here are a few pictures to fill in the time gap. Our flight left Maine in the evening so we were able to sneak one last sight the Portland Head Lighthouse.

In case you are wondering who that handsome man is with me in the picture. Yep, it is Paul with a short haircut. He got his 'hairs' cut in Maine and changed his look after 8 year of not having it short. Here is a closer picture I was able to sneak in as he was looking over the edge at the lighthouse.


this picture is for you, Ali and yes I am drinking our favorite carrot, orange, apple with a little lemon

When we got back to highlands, I was so excited to see the kids I could hardly sleep the night before. It was a great reunion. We took them to the pool and had a great time 








the zipline is right next to the pool and it was Noah's favorite thing to do

We got to celebrate with Meme on her birthday with Ice Cream Yum
We went to the Nature Center for the feeding of the animals

The kids loved having their Papa around so much

We went the car show

We rode the Jeep up Sunset Mountain

If you look close you can see the town of Highlands down below

We got to spend lots of time with Momo which is always a real blessing.

Those kids are super cute. I love the one of Noah licking his dad...that is so Zia. She licks every time you vulnerably present your face to be kissed. Looks like you guys had an awesome time!
