So, here we are. It’s been 90 weeks since we drove out of our driveway in Sandy, bound for new experiences and a unique chapter of our life by moving to Europe. We started another chapter when we returned to the U.S. last summer. A LOT has happened since then, and we have been blessed to spend tons of time with family and friends across the country. The last ten months have been such a precious season to reconnect, to celebrate, and to mourn with those we love. Now, it’s time to close that chapter and open another — time for another adventure!
We have spent the last two weeks here in Utah with exploits exciting and not so much so. Here’s a list of some of the fun (and a bit of “not-so-fun”)…
- Sorting through Max’s things
- Swiss cookies with Mikelle
- Colonoscopy
- Dinners with friends (thanks for the great time Margaret, Kathy and Dave, Emily and Kevin, the Guertler family, and to all my ballet friends!)
- Vaccinations
- House projects
- Scanning family photos
- Taxes & financial fun
- Gingerbread waffles
- Mammogram
- Shopping for travel gear
- An amazing steak dinner
- Facetime and calls with kids and grandkids
- Attempting to make plans and bookings
- Hiking and taking walks
It’s been a great month and we have really enjoyed being here. When I check in next week, it will be from the Mediterranean! We’re excited to get back to our travels, but we will miss “home” and our people. Have a great week!
Corpus Christi
This week started out very quiet and ended with a trip into Corpus Christi.
A New Year! A New Place!
Hello and Happy New Year! I hope you are all well!
I promised a more detailed update of our last few weeks, so here it is…
A Quick Update
Hi! It’s been a few weeks since I checked in. And this message will be a short one. We have really enjoyed the last couple of weeks with the grandkids and all the family shenanigans. I’ll fill in the details next week. Today is our 31st wedding anniversary and we are on the move again. We stopped at our favorite BBQ place for lunch and we are snowbirding instead of snowboarding. We are bound for Corpus Christi, TX via Austin. It should be a pleasant place to park ourselves for a few weeks. Have a good one!
I’m so thankful we could see you guys and share a yummy meal and rich conversation. Cheers to your next adventure!
Always a joy to see you guys. It looks like you had a great time in Southern Utah! ♥️
