There and Back Again... :-)

Hello! We're back!

We had a great three weeks of traveling and we're glad to be back home!

The last stop on our journey was over a week with my sister and her family in Slovenia. They moved there about two months ago and it's so great to have her so much closer! Now we're only 1 time zone apart instead of 7!

Here are some pictures of our time together. Katie had a blast playing with her cousin Caleb - though she's still working on the whole sharing idea. Minor detail...

Out of Touch

Hi All!
It's been quite a while since I've posted! I'm sure you've been anxiously awaiting my next post! :-) It's been a busy several weeks - but busy in a good way!
I was able to go to California for about a week to celebrate the wedding of my dear friend Sarah to her new husband Dean (yeah for frequent flyer miles!). Sarah and I have been close friends since college and it was so important to me to be there with her. If you're thinking, what, Traci was in California and she didn't even call me!?!? Please don't be offended!!! If you weren't a part of the wedding or family I didn't mention my trip because I knew it would be SUPER short, busy, and full of wedding activity - which was the purpose for the trip. Daddy and Katie stayed home and had... lot's of fun without me, but I think they were glad to see me back.


Now we're in Poland a few days early for our organization's bi-annual all Europe conference. We were able to come early and meet up with J's parents who are coming to help do child care durring the conference - there will be 11 little ones ages 6 -28 months - Wow! So we're seeing the sights and enjoying the hotel pool and some Grandma and Grandpa time.
