Visiting Isabella and Family


I'm back home after two months in Ecuador and two weeks of visiting my family in Oregon and Washington. I had a great time with my granddaughter, Isabella, in Eugene. I was able to see her take that initial swing at her first t-ball practice. It brought back memories of cheering my boys on at their t-ball games. I was also able to visit Bella's first grade class and talk with them a bit about the kids in Ecuador. They were so full of wonder and questions and it was fun to be involved in this part of Bella's life. My sisters Susan and Brenda and brothers Ted and Mark all live in Washington state with their families. I was able to spend some quality time with them, too, but wish we all lived closer. Now that I'm back in Minnesota, Bill and I are getting to finally spend some time together. After all the traveling I've done this spring, it does feel good to be HOME!
