That's right K-mart shoppers...your favorite couple made it home! Ten hours, a detour to pick up our puppy, some Starbucks, gridlock traffic, and Arby's chicken fingers later, we made it to Crofton around 7:30 last night. Thanks so much to everyone who participated in the "Townley House Revival" project a few weeks ago...I couldn't believe the house Danielle and I walked into last night was the same one I left last fall! You guys are amazing. Yay for quarter-round and tile!
In other news...WOW is it great to be home again. As most of you live around here I'm sure you'll think I'm crazy, but Maryland really, really smells good. No, like really. Funny the little things you notice after being away for so long. I'm not entirely sure what I'm going to do with myself today (other than kiss my wife when she comes home from work)...so I'll have to get back to you on all that, but there'll be more to follow, I'm sure.
And...and...to all of you who supported us during the ordeal we've named "Africa": Thank You. The kindness you showed us through our months of separation meant the world to both of us, and made our reunion and return home all the sweeter. I do believe an Ethiopian party will be in order at the Townley's soon...will keep you updated. I'll bring the cheetahs...er...I mean cheetos and beer!

Welcome home! Good to have you back safe and sound! A party sounds like a great idea although I think we would all appreciate it if you brought the cheetahs!
See you tonight!
Hi Rob! So glad your home although now I'll have to be more careful about just "popping in" to see Danielle after one of my yoga sessions at the gym. Can't wait to hang out with you both...now Scott can be included in my Danielle hangout sessions! See you tonight!
Welcome home, Rob!! I'm sure many praises and prayers have been and will be made at your church and elsewhere for your safe return. Looking forward to seeing you at Caribou when you have the time!
P.S. Re Danielle's earlier post...
1) sure am glad I don't mail out those silly marketing pieces!
2) so was it grilled cheese and tomato soup (with the finely chopped parsley sprinkled just prior to serving) that was demonstrated in your first Williams Sonoma cooking class last Friday?
Rob... welcome home!
hopefully we'll see you tonight. can't wait to hear your stories (you know, the ones you're allowed to tell us without having to kill us later)
