We're back...

from vacation, that is. We had such a wonderful time up north, but it is always good to be back to routines and schedules. Since our vacation was long, the updates will be split into several separate posts.

First we headed to Tennessee to visit Derek's college for his 15th year reunion. Cherish had the most fun:

We stayed at the reunion for a couple of days and then headed over to visit Derek's great-aunt for a couple of hours.

We were so glad to see the temperatures dropping!

 Then we drove to South Carolina to catch the night train north. Someone was VERY excited about sleeping on the train:

 Thumbs up:

 Nighty-night

To be continued.... (Next stop: Pennsylvania.)
