Rome is Incredible!!

If only Jordan and Tyler were here with us, this would be heaven-on-earth! We talk about you two all the time and wish you were with us . . .
Currently it's 9:30 in the evening and we are sitting outside a cafe in the outskirts of Rome. It's a warm evening and we are surrounded by the sights and sounds of this unbelievable city . . . never thought it would be this beautiful. We've spent the last couple of days journeying around the city, enjoying one new adventure after another - so many stories to share including: spending 12 Euro for one gelato (oops), almost getting run over several times as we crazy Americans have tried to run across CRAZY roads full of motorcycles and speeding little cars going 100 MPH, sitting atop a grassy knoll this afternoon looking over the entire city of Rome, and wishing you all were here to share these memories with us.
Jon, Jeff, and Dean . . . we have to do a family trip together over here!! Danny, Kristen loves hearing from you and we're fighting off all the flirty Italians who keep eyeing our beautiful girls. Ok, off to try and find a train station to take us back to our hotel. Sorry I'm rambling - the wine here in Italy is really tasty!! (Kelsey, we'll have to talk!)
Off to Pompeii and the Amalfi coast tomorrow . . . WAHOO!!
Cheers!
