well, we are back home now after 2 great weeks in seattle. the weather there was petty much perfect, so coming back to NC humidity was a let down. we took the red eye flight home the other night, which is pretty much like staying up all night. the eyes were red all right. but overall, flying at night is easier with kids since they slept most of the flight and we didn't need anything to entertain them. they are still catching up on sleep though by sleeping late like teenagers in the mornings.

our first day home was rough. we were all just sitting on the couch while the girls watched videos and miles and i were drifting in and out of sleep. then, i said we need to wake up and since it had been at least 2 whole weeks since eating chick-fil-a, we decided that was the best place to wake up with a very large sweet tea.

which reminds me that miles and i are both doing some version (which means we cheat a lot) of the south beach diet right now. b/c sweet tea is not on the diet. he started several days before me, but so far he's lost about 8 lbs. and i've lost 3.

anyways, it's good to be home, but we had a great time and did so many fun things in seattle and we enjoyed spending time with family.
