So here's the short of it, 
Home again.  

And here's the long.

Liga and I spent the morning with Mom and Papa Russ.  Avery spent the night with us so we had a chance to visit with her too.  She's sure adorable.  Can't wait until all the next generation kids are old enough so that all these little guys will gather at some family event and get to know one another.  Our Max and Caleb, and Steve and Pat's little grand babies, and Russ's little guys.  That should be lots of fun.

Our ride home was eventful to say the least.  We stopped for lunch at Panera and we stopped at the Outlet Mall in Calhoun to pick up a couple of things for Liga's Israel trip.  And we had lots to talk about - it's nice to be in a place where my daughter and I are able to visit and talk about grown things.
