Klink and Tay's Dubuque Trip Thread

Yes please have a safe trip home. I am so glad the two of you had a great time. But there's no place like home. Is there?

We just got back in town safe and sound, I wanted to let everyone know. Yes Lori, there is indeed no place like home. The problem is when the place you're traveling to becomes like home, which is what happened for me in Dubuque. I love his family, I really do. Granted I probably wouldn't feel the same if I had to live with them 24/7, but at the end of the day, they really are amazing people who love me and accept me for who I am. I know his mom is really happy to have me marrying into the family. It meant more than I can possibly put into words to hear her call me her future daughter-in-law. I can't wait to be a Klinkhammer.

Tomorrow it's back to work and finishing set up of my apartment for my grandparents visiting this weekend! Ah, life. Not complaining, it's been very good to get away for a while.

It does indeed feel amazingly good to be loved. I'm glad you missed us and are happy for our safe return, that makes me feel loved too! I am definitely one of the happiest women in the world, but leaving has been bittersweet. It is comforting though to know that I have the rest of my life to be with them and call them family.

Also it's exciting to get a sister out of the deal, since I'm an only child! I'm so proud of her graduating, that's what this was all about. That and seeing our family. You should see Matt, he was so proud of his sister. The pictures only sort of convey it. It's wonderful.

And I got to see baby pictures!! Oh my gosh he was the cutest baby ever lol. I reserve the right to change my mind about that once we have one of our own though, haha.

Without being an ***.......... even though im going to sound one......

Question - Why are we all so excited people drove home safely?

I mean im glad they made it home safe, but its not like they were walking home at night at 3am through Moss Side, or driving through the Lebanon to get to where they live....


Im confused, maybe im just ignorant?

And remember, i like u guys, im not being a ****!

I know you like us, lol. I do see your point actually. I guess it's just that it was a long drive, but there are also some dangers with driving, as well (we did drive through a hailstorm and get held up because of a huge wreck on the other side of the highway). Those things would have been really really bad had they gotten out of hand. But yeah, it definitely could be worse and I see your point.
