Again it has been forever

School and work has kept me very busy. In the middle of this we had two weeks of glorious fun with the fam. Laura and Cahnen were here March 20 - 28 leaving 1/2 before Mom and Dad arrived. Thanks for being the airport shuttle on the west end Val. ;) We also had the great pleasure of hosting one of my friends, Mary, from Spokane. So much fun and I will post pictures this weekend. Life has been flying by and I realized today that I am leaving here in 2 months (jaw drops). In between now and moving back we are headed to Washington for Sally's wedding. I could not be any more excited to share in her joy and she is so excited.

Things that have been happening.
Jordan is traveling again Santa Fe and back and now he is off to D.C. for his final Sarnoff presentation. Woohoo, this is like a thesis kind of thing so it is pretty exciting. Pray for him, it is tomorrow. We headed back down to the cape (cod that is) where we enjoyed some sunshine and wine tasting. For those of you who like/know about wine, it is very different out here. The weather doesn't support the grapes we see on the west coast so mostly they are fruit wines of blends of grapes that certain wine makers buy from other locations and ferment on-site. A couple of local grapes are the concord and the diamond. The concord grape makes a wine which makes me think of communion wine, a great deal like grape juice with a zing. ;) The diamond is something so different, spicy and fantastic. We really enjoyed it. This is a short update but I wanted to give you something. I am headed to the ballet tonight with a friend from church to see Sleeping Beauty which should be amazing.
Hopefully be back to update you soon. I am working on a comparative analysis of Boston vs. Seattle so look forward to up coming fun :).

Blessings all!
Sincerely,
Barbara
