California Dreamin'






Hello Everyone.......It has been awhile.......Here is what has been happening in my world.....
We spent a good part of March at our church's retreat center.  In April, I was in Spokane each week, helping Stephenie to move.  She contracted mono and needed her momma.  Of course, nothing pleased me more!  In May, we spent 10 days on vacation, which was wonderful. Our first stop was Carmel, California, where we spent 4 days visiting my sisters and their families, then we headed north on California's Highway 1 into southern Oregon. We went to many beautiful beaches, the Red Woods, we saw our first whale in the wild, we were able to be quite close to an area where sea lions were pupping, we ate some yummy foods, and then headed home from Oregon.  We totally enjoyed our time away, we both needed the break badly.
This past week found me in Spokane once again....helping Laura to move.  Todd had to travel for work all last week, and so I helped watch the grands while she packed. They are planning to be out of their house next Saturday, so Mitch and I will be going up to help them move.  We spent Memorial Day weekend, serving 250 people at our church's retreat center......it was FUN, but hard and tiring work.  The septic acted up, and so I brought home 12 HUGE bags of linens and towels to wash.  I have been washing ever since......
Whew......just typing all of this makes me tired!
