We are back, we got back home last night. We had the most wonderful time! We have over 2400 pictures to go through so if you can imagine, I need a few days (.....probably more, we'll see how things go) to make a post all about it. Sam and I are at the very bottom of the picture, we are standing inside the castle walls, it was beautiful.

welcome home! glad you had a great time and i cant wait to see all the fun pictures. any jet lag? i bet your kids were so happy to see you!

I can't wait to see more pictures! How fun! I heard about Sam's calling yesterday at dinner. It amazes me how they track people down. What a wonderful story to remember! Can't wait to see you...it is only 1 1/2 months away. I think you were just here, just not a lot of days...but I missed seeing you. Montana is going to be awesome!

I have to say this has been a funny story to tell friends. I have decided that the church is probably better than the FBI at tracking down its members - especially active members. They have connections!! He will be great in the calling and bless you for the sacrifies you will also make.
Keep working with Carlee. It will be worth it when she is done. I'm sure it would be quite scary at first. Love you guys!!

So good to hear from you, love your blog... I would love to go to france, my brother went near there on his mission and can't wait to go back. What a amazing adventure, and great memories in the making.
Take care
Stacey
