After France, we had a few days before Pete was back to work. We received great news from friends who had moved away just before the pandemic that they were moving back to Europe. And while Austria isn't exactly next door, it is a whole lot closer than Indonesia! They drove up to Amsterdam from Austria and spent the weekend with us before the kids were back to school. Such a happy reunion! Then the kids started school and I went immediately from their first day of school photo shoot to the airport to head to Denver for Gia's wedding! Another great solo trip spent with good friends in a beautiful part of the world. After returning home, it was immediately time for a sad goodbye as Maeve's good buddy Luisa was moving to America. They are outside of NYC so I'm hopeful we'll be able to see each other before too long!
