A Couple of Adventures

Mommy had a busy spring (April-May) with a few adventures for work including Lima, Peru; Rome, Italy; and the not as exciting Fort Worth, Texas. Here are a few pictures from Peru and Rome at least.




While in Peru, Mommy extended the trip over the weekend, with a couple coworkers in order to see Macchu Picchu and a few other neat sites along the way. It was an exhausting trip to get there that took several days but it was well worth the journey...Macchu Picchu, a mysterious city of ruins set high in the mountains, did not disappoint.








Daddy joined Mommy in Rome for a quick getaway while Morgan had a great visit with Grandma Brown and Pop-Pop. We fit in a number of sites during Mommy's limited site-seeing time, including a tour of the Vatican and St. Peter's basilica.




Daddy also fit in a trip to the ancient ruins and viewing of the amazing Borghese gallery. But the best part of Rome is the food! Endless options of fabulous places around every corner. There just weren't enough meals in the day. One place we went to with Mommy's coworkers didn't even have a menu...they just kept bringing plate after plate throughout the 2-hour dinner...starting with the best antipasto meats and cheeses we have ever had.
