My sweet hubby and I just spent the last 10 days in beautfiul northern Italy and Switzerland. It was an AMAZING vacation. This trip was our survivied first year as parents/been married 5 years/having another baby/just because trip.
Last year, when I was 28 weeks pregnant, we toured southern Italy…so now, I can say both of my babies went to Italy before they were born.

This is us 20 hours later. We just landed in Milan.
















































So, that was our trip. It was wonderful!!! We shopped so much that we had to pay US Airways some more money on our way home because our bags were so full…well worth it! We had a blast spending 10 days touring northern Italy and Switzerland together. It’s always an adventure when I set out with Andrew Shull…never dull…always fun!

Looks like you both had a great time Shay!! Maybe Clark and I need the same survived 5 years of marriage, three baby boys, just because! Love that!

Simply GORGEOUS. I am so excited that you and Andrew got to get a away by yourselves on an amazing European adventure before Baby #2 arrives. I bet you were SO happy to see Kensington when you got home!
Your story of the mountain road cracked me up. Those single track (one-lane) roads are all over Europe. Andrew did exactly the right thing my backing up to a passing point — we have had to do that too many times to count in England and Germany, and it's always a wee bit stressful.
