A heck of a vacation!

We are back from our family vacation (Carson and Kellen's first real vacation!). We went with my family for a trip out to Banff, Alberta (where Mom and Dad celebrated their honeymoon 35 years ago!). Round trip we put 4700 miles on our car and made tons of memories (even those that were not so fun at the time, are already funny memories now). 

The boys thought vacation was great! Their favorite parts were the many playgrounds we stopped at to let them play. Our resort in Banff also had an awesome playground! After one stop to let the boys get some energy out, Kellen remarked, "This is THE best. And we're on vacation!"

Just wanted to share some of the many pictures! Thank you all for following our journey (the highs and the lows)! We will be heading to Cincinnati next week for Carson's airway reconstruction...I will post an update soon on more specifics of that trip.

And we are off...Poppy was a life saver!
