Viva Italia!

Flashback Summer '97...

pregnant + 1 year old + Two weeks in Europe = FUN TIMES!

We spent a few days in Germany and Austria and then drove to Venice. Ahhhh, the city of romance.....that is, if you aren't accompanied by a toddler. We passed on the gondola ride for fear of Casey diving into the murky canal. But Randy was able to expand his tie collection.



We rode trains to visit the rest of our destinations:



Pisa




Naples


Rome



It was definitely a trip to remember. One note of advice: if you are pregnant, I wouldn't suggest allowing a little Italian lady to spend her entire day cooking for you. You will never be able to stuff your belly with as much food as she thinks you should eat. Oh, and don't let her do your laundry. She just might flush your little boys' red shirt down the toilet (how it got near the toilet to begin with is beyond me!)

How come I didn't know you went to Italy? That sounds wonderful!

I love the last picture with scribbles on it. You can fix that you know:) Sounds too fun....can you even remember only having one child?
