A Decade

Ten years.

Ten years ago I had just become engaged to a wonderful man.

Ten years ago my Mom lived out in New Mexico, my sister had just moved to New Mexico, and my Dad had a job where he traveled frequently for a few weeks at a time.

Because of his job, he planned a trip for my sister & I to "tag" along with him to Europe.

We met my sis in Atlanta & off we went--thanks for the trip Dad!

Luxembourg City, Luxembourg

We stumbled upon a cycling time trial race. Tons of people, street vendors, pretty cool.

(If you have no idea where Luxembourg is--it's a tiny country between France and Germany. Beautiful area.)

Freibourg, Switzerland
This was the offiical business portion of my Dad's trip. This left my sis & I time to explore the city and ride the funicular (wonderful invention!). Ask her about climbing the bell tower!

Germany
Yup, it's an Irish Pub in Germany.

Sacre Couer. Paris, France

Rebecca was none too happy with me at this point. She wanted to take the funicular to the top, but I wanted to climb the steps & enjoy the view.

I won.

We climbed. All 234 of them.

Germany

All in all it was a great trip. Yes, I'm pretty sure there was some bickering (after all--we are family), but we still managed some laughs, and we got to see some amazing things. In under two weeks we managed to visit, Milan (Italy), Freibourg and Lausanne (Switzerland), Paris (France), Luxembourg City (Luxembourg), and a few towns along the Rhine in Germany. Not too shabby.

One day Kevin & I will take the boys abroad.

But not yet.

Keenan needs to get out of diapers first.
