hello everybody!!
I'm back, and this time it is really me (Mom) adding this post. I have been away from home for more that 3 weeks, and I am realy to get home. But I have had an amazing experience. Dad and I left for Italy on April 29 ande we spent one week in Italy and one in
Greece. I can't ever begin to tell all of the amazing places we visited and things we saw. Italy - what a beautiful country. It has to be o0ne of the most beautiful places on earth. But I say that about everywhere I visit - I'll write the details later with pictures. Greece, what can I say. A very amazing place, with good food, ancient everything, but hot, and dirty for the most part. We say some pretty incredible places though, places where the Apostle Paul had visited and taught. Places that I will tell about later with some more pics.

Now I am in North Carolina with Jeni and we are having fun with Bri, Caty-Lynne and Lizzy until nexst Wed when I return home. Brian just graduated from medical school last Sunday and then on Monday they went to Hawaii to celebrate. They are having a great time and so are we. One thng I can say is that I'm not as young as I used to be. And I had 4 kids in 7 years and babysat another 3 preschoolers full time, volunteered in the school, taught joy school, made all of our bread, yogert, mayonnaise, sewed all my own clothes, as well as making Steve's blue jeans, blah, blah, blah, I can hardly believe it myself. What a woman. !!!

Anyway this morning we tool the kids to the pool and soaked in some rays, and we are thinking about taking the crew out to dinner tonight. Sounds crazy, but we are tired of eating griloled cheese sandwiches and quisidallas.
