| 14th March 2007 Grandma Q | Welcome Home - From: Home? Dear Erin & Mike, Glad you're home safe and sound.

Stop in and see us on your way back to Santa Barbara or before you leave for San Diego. Regards from your Grandpa. God Bless You. Love You. Grandma Q. |
| 13th March 2007 Amber | How wonderful * :) - From: Home? I may not have commented on every blog, but I read everyone of them and always looked forward to the next one.

| 4th March 2007 Erica :) | Travelin' Fever... - From: Far From Worries After two months in Thailand, are you guys learning the language? Is is hard to get around sometimes without knowing it? After the much inspired blogs and photos and words of wisdom, i decided to take a short jaunt over to Europe for 11 days. :) That's right...it was time to visit ITALIA again...and boy was it fun. It was me, my mom, and her boyfriend for a short trip, but much enjoyed (and needed.) I can only imagine how great it must be to travel like that with the one you love for TWO MONTHS! :-D What a dream. What I've discovered in my own travels (both big and small) is that we need to have them. We need to step back from our "realities" of day to day to see the wonder that exists around us-- to view everything from a curious eye once again. I am so glad that you two are having the times of your lives. Your photos are wonderful and you both look sun-kissed, happy, and beautiful. Can't wait to catch up when you get home! Best, Erica |

I love you, have fun you two! |
| 29th January 2007 Grandma Q. | Nice to hear from you again - From: "All Those Who Wander Are Not Lost" Dear Erin & Mike, It still sounds like you're still having a wonderful time.

The only thing I received were the black frames. Let me know if anybody else had the same problem. Sorry to hear that you both not feeling well. Take care of yourself and be safe. Your Grandpa sends his love. God Bless You. Love You, Grandma Q. |
