    Ciao Italia!

    By Kevin | September 27, 2009

    We returned this week from our adventure to Italy, and it will take me a while to get through all the photos (over 2,000 of them!). We are so grateful to have had the opportunity to make the trip. Ten years ago during our honeymoon in Italy, Bethany and I made a commitment to each other that we’d return to celebrate our 10th anniversary. We didn’t know if it would even be possible, especially now with a four-year-old and a one-year-old. But, with the support of our family, we made the trip!

    Traveling around in a group of 16 people (including five of them who are 4-years-old or younger) made for some challenges. Yet, now that we’re home, and we are hearing Garrett tell his teacher and his friends about his trip, we’re so glad we brought them. Gillian may not remember much (I sure don’t remember anything from when I was 14-months old), but she’ll be able to see lots of photos of her first international experience. There’s lots more to write about, and I’ll try to put it into some kind of order that makes sense on here…a little at a time as I sort through the mountain of photos!

      We were thrilled that we could ALL be together for your anniversary and to share it in Italy!! We loved seeing everyone and being with the kids. Some truly special moments were had. I can’t wait to see the pictures. I’ve been working on mine too, but far fewer than yours. Between the four of us taking pictures, I imagine there are several thousand to sort and make sense of. I hope our coffee tables are sturdy enough for the albums!

      I was really excited to hear that you made the trip and I think it’s awesome that Garrett and Gillian got to be there too. I wish I could hear Garrett talking about his trip. I’m sure it’s a riot to hear what stood out to him.
