It's been interesting for me to see and hear about all you have learned and and experienced. I'm happy to have you back in the valley.

I'm grateful I have a wife that insists I stop working after 5:00 (and even stop thinking about work!). Anything after 5 is family time. It's very rare that I do any type of work after that time unless I've planned to meet with someone about a job or something, but generally I try to do that stuff during lunch. I'm sure I could work all night - whether on the computer or in my head, but making sure I stop keeps me balanced I think. Glad you got what you wanted out of your trip.

I think we all need to take more time and spend it with family. It's very easy to get caught up in the business of life- work, school, housework, etc. and forget that spending time with family is more important than all of that. I definitely need to be better at it. Especially since I've been working full time. It's really hard to find time between working and housework to spend lots of quality time with family- also especially since Justin is in school. But we just need to make time. I'm happy for you guys that you were able to have this opportunity. Thanks again for watching Kennedy this weekend :) What wonderful insight.

We truly can't appreciate something if we aren't focused on it, no matter how wonderful or important it may be. By allowing ourselves to get away from the distractions, we were able to focus on each other and that made all the difference. :) It is really interesting how being away from all the normal distractions of life allowed us to really recognize what is most important, and to appreciate it enough to give it the attention it deserves.
