Home.

July 6, 2014 by Adrienne

We’re home. 1,700 miles in a packed 12 passenger van with nine people and one small well-traveled dog, driving through the night on the way there and on the way home, nine days away from home, a house crowded with 41 people – 24 of them younger than 17. Three nights camping in a tent, one night and day of pouring rain flooding one incompetent tent, and one lake providing the promise of much fun.

Cousins. Best friends. Tears on departure.

Memories.

Blaine's siblings, less one, and families with Great Grandma, soon to be 97.

About Adrienne

A homeschooling mother of nine, ages 17 and under, I chronicle life, laughs, struggles, and lessons learned as I raise a larger-than-most sized family and try to laugh about the craziness.

    Glad you’re home safely. Now you need a couple of days to rest up. : -)
