NY - Day 3

Finally, one last swim and then we were off to Cracker Barrel to have breakfast with our old friends Felicia and Tom and Mackenzie, and beautiful, new, new baby Rebecca! Our last stop was Saint Mary's for 10:30 mass, so lovely; we really miss celebrating mass there! Such a friendly and relaxed atmosphere, a cozy and open (strange combo) church, and wonderful music!

This was the first time I was back, and I was reminded that we really lived in a nice neighborhood, went to a great church, and had great jobs with great friends. Oh, and this is crazy - I miss our Walmart! It was so close, clean, and friendly! It was our one-stop shop, though we stopped about 6 days a week! And alas, we LOVE being close to family here in Cleveland NOW, it has been a dream come true! Being away really makes us appreciate being back!

Sadly, the ride home was a bit rough. We stopped a lot in the first half, and happily we evened out our timing b/c we drove the second half straight through! Early on, Anna was a little crazy - she started yelling "Carla!" over and over until she woke up, and this happened more than once. It was something - there was like nothing we could do to stop her! We were ALL happy to be home!

PS: for some strange reason, my hair decided to be curly this weekend - cool!
