Thanks so much for coming- what a whirl wind of a trip! We were grateful for every min. and we did well with only one bathroom too! You look great in the picture with lil Tylen! Can't wait to see you again soon.
Just wanted to thank you again for your awesome blog and how amazing you are! I hope Mr. Man gets to be home for awhile now!!
Thanks a million for your comment on my blog awhile back. It was a little thing, but you can't know how very much it meant to me!!!!!
Glad you could make so many memories in such a short time!! Being both sides of the border on July 4th is a result of being both Canadian and American now!!
