Auf Wiedersehen, Basel!

We are sad to announce that our trip has been canceled. It's a complicated story of budgets and bureaucracy. Chris and I, and even Layla, had really begun to live this dream and it's a sad loss to recognize that it's not going to happen. We are hopeful that some day we will travel overseas as a family as more than just tourists on a whirlwind trip.

Trying to look at the bright side. Here are some good things to come of this:

1. I can enroll Layla in the "Teddy Bear Picnic" camp at the Lex Res.
2. I can get back to the gym. Put the kids in the gym daycare and work my butt off.
3. We will be able to visit grandparents in Maine and maybe even meet our new cousin, Liam.
4. We can focus on finishing the basement and maybe even enjoying it this summer.
5. Layla no longer has to worry that Josh is going to "fall out of the sky" if he isn't buckled into a carseat.

So, to the two of you out there reading this (hi, Mom!), Auf Wiederluege, and until next time!
