There's no place like home

The Walls' family had quite an adventurous and fun filled Spring Break last week. Sammy and I spent the week with Tutu and Papa, while Dan and Daniel flew out to the East Coast to stay with Uncle Jeff, Auntie Cassi, cousin Alex and Hannah.

Dan and Daniel flew out of LAX the Sunday before Easter and spent the week in Virginia with Dan's brother and family. Daniel was perfect on the plane rides and had a lot of fun playing with his cousin Alex. They got to see Papa Walls, go to the Aerospace museum and Washington D.C., went to a Nationals ballgame, visited Great Granny Fisher and relatives in Baltimore and much more. I will have to get Dan to write more about the trip and all the fun stuff they did out there.

Sammy got a rare treat for the week; the exclusive attention of Tutu and Papa. It was quite strange having only Sammy around with Tutu and Papa. Although Sammy caught the stomach flu bug right before we left and spent 3 or 4 days sick with high temps and then got in one of his molars, we still had lots of fun. Sammy especially enjoyed his time with Papa having confetti fights on the bed (throwing that Easter basket grass at each other). Sammy must have really had a good time because when it was to leave he said he wanted to stay at Tutu and Papa's house and he bawled as we drove away.

Although we all had a great vacation, it was so nice to come back home. We got home yesterday and at naptime Daniel fell into his bed and said, 'There's no place like home.' I had to agree.
