Traveling Home

One of the trips we look forward to every year is our (way too short) week visit back home. It’s a chance to catch up with family, reconnect with friends and of course gorge ourselves on all of our favorite foods! This year however we had the added bonus of getting to meet the newest addition to the Powell family. Quentin George Powell! We were so thrilled that Greg, Alisa & Quentin were able to make their way back to DFW while we were going to be in town and we loved every minute we got to spend with them.

We already have taught him how cool the UK is.  Just check out that onsie!!
 
Yeah, the poor kid may not have been allowed to touch the floor.
We also got to spend some time with a number of friends over the course of our visit thanks to some fantastic parties hosted by several of our dear friends. They really were a great way to spend some quality time with so many wonderful friends so to Bill & Debra and Robyn & Scott a very special thank you.
Thanks also to Garrett and Beth for being flexible on the one day we were all in town at the same time. We really enjoyed getting to see you guys and are so excited about all the news you shared with us. You’ve got some amazing adventures in store as well and we can’t wait to share them with you!
 
Of course it wouldn’t be a trip home without spending time with relatives. Again special thanks to Mom and Dad, Bootsie, Jonathan, Grandma and Grandpa Powell and Becky and Bob for hosting family get togethers and/or providing much appreciated room and board while we were in town. We certainly wouldn’t have been able to see as many of our friends and family without you guys. And last but certainly not least thanks to those of you who came from out of town to spend some time with us, particularly Amanda’s parents and Grandmothers. It’s always wonderful to spend as much time with family as we can when were home and were incredibly grateful for the time we got to spend with all of you.


All in all it was an amazing trip home and we loved getting a chance to see and visit with so many of you!
