back at the ranch

We arrived late last night after a long day of travel.  And woke to cold rain.  Ugh.


Our travel was totally worth it.  So is the tricky transition back to real life and gray skies.  Our time in Malaysia was sweet.  I've got a few more pictures from the end of our days there (including an early birthday celebration for Matt and Isaac and Luke).  But tonight I'm cold, and tired, and not thinking all that clearly, so it'll have to wait.

I opened my email this afternoon to find some fun pics from my cousin Kate - She took these at the Youth Park that's a short walk from their home.  The Youth Park pool (with fountains!) was just a small part of this really incredible park facility enjoyed by people of all ages.  A great place to play, and people watch :)


And splash in the pool after a hot hike on Penang Hill.


Tomorrow is Matt's birthday!  We are excited to have something to celebrate as we return home.  Then Monday it's real life again :)  Chinese school, home school, the works.

Transition back home, I wish vacations would last forever sometimes,; house cleaning, meal making, extreme quiet, routine..... Loved the post Laura. Thanks for the pictures. Love you all.
