Well, our morning began quite early, surprise baby Buddha awakening everyone with his yak-yak-yak which sounds distinctly like “dad, it’s time to get up!” So Mommy and Daddy enjoyed a cup of coffee, and took the two of you in your pajamasJ down to the inn restaurant for breakfast. Afterwards, we hustled back to the room and after a while returned to Bodhi’s favorite adventure activity---the swimming pool. Again, Buddha, you seemed to enjoy our “swim,” but again you and Daddy were the first to be ready to end the swimming portion of our adventure. Bodhi, you and Mommy stayed behind and continued your swimming as Daddy and Buddha went back to the room and got dressed.
A short time later, we were joined by Mommy and Bodhi, and the two of you (Bodhi and Buddha) had lunch and we all then packed up our “gear” and headed back to Bloomington for a short visit before returning home. While in Bloomington, and on our way home we stopped at another Tibetan Buddhist Monastery and marveled at the building and grounds, and Mommy captured pictures of us all on her Nikon.
Then, off we went for our return trip home, Daddy had to be back by late afternoon to get to work, and we all showed our happiness to be home when we were greeted by the door by Grandmoo and Murffee and Arlo!
It was a short adventure, but an incredibly fun one, and one that will contribute to our family history and traditions! We are a truly blessed family, and Mommy and Daddy want the two of you, Bodhi and Buddha, that there is nothing in the world like spending time together, as a family, watching the two of you as two very, very, very special people (and blessings)! Mommy and Daddy are sincerely blessed to have each other, to have the two of you is simply a miracle and blessing beyond words!
This adventure may have come to a close, but another begins tomorrow. We’re going to go look at a larger house, and potential future homeJ KarmaJ
Daddy insisted on writing this post and wouldn’t allow Mommy to comment on the fact that our stay at the inn included being surrounded by PODS. Yes, PODS, but in an attempt to keep good Karma, I won’t say anything more. Great Papaw Grills will know what Mommy is speaking of, and how that must have impacted our trip... needless to say, Mommy was highly got annoyed a few times. Uncle Dan, if you are reading this post, it’s much like when you set Tiana and I up in a lavish hotel in Tucson, told us to party like rock stars and provided us with supplies, only to arrive and discover, a DARE convention being held! HA! However, calmness was restored within Mommy when Daddy made the last stop of our adventure, at the Tibetan Buddhist Monastery. It was so beautiful and peaceful! Mommy will now fantasize about becoming a monk :)
Again... no captions for now, maybe I'll add them later :)

Bodhi not wanting to leave... running from Momma! |
Mommy let you run, I didn't want to leave either Bodhi girl! |
Bodhi, you ended your day watching cartoons with Grandpa Kurt. Mommy had unpacking to do and Daddy was at work. |
