In just over 24 hours, my family is going to be hitting the road! It’s our annual trek west to Idaho, but this time we have something REALLY fun to head back for. My baby brother (not such a baby anymore!) is getting married on Saturday! I can’t wait for the wedding and to officially welcome Heather into our family. :-D

I’m going to be out of town until late Friday, Sept 3rd. So, if you try to get ahold of me and I don’t get back to you right away, that’s why!

I hope everyone is able to stay cool through this heatwave, and enjoy the last few weeks of summer!

No pictures to share, just a heart-felt wish that everyone gets to spend a happy Thanksgiving day with their family and loved ones. Eat lots of turkey and take the time to remember everything that you have to be thankful for. Even when going through hard times, you know that there is always something good to hold onto.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

I found out today that my grandma, my dad’s mom, passed away this morning. It’s not unexpected. She was in the last stages of congenital heart failure and actually held on a lot longer than we expected her to. She’s been in and out of the hospital and a care facility since last spring. She had a stroke late last week, and we knew it was going to be soon. But it’s still sad to see a member of the family die. I wasn’t as close to her as I was to my mom’s mom, and I do feel some regret that I didn’t get a chance to know her a little better.

I will be flying out to Oregon to be with the family for the funeral, although I don’t know specifics yet. It will be a quick trip… looks like Friday, Saturday, and back on Sunday.

So, if I’m out of touch or slow to respond, that’s why and I will get back to everyone as soon as I can.
