Granny Gracie

When I was about Grace's age, I was taught how to crochet. I made long strands of links... So you can imagine the deja'vu moment when I see my Gracie sitting on the couch crocheting a long strand of links taught by my sister.

What a trip! All back safe and sound.

It was an amazing feeling to see the plane land back safely in Spokane. We knew Faith was in great hands, but you still miss her so much. They had a packed day each day they were there from the Capitol Building to the Holocaust Museum, to the Appalachian Trail to the Spy Museum to the Museum of American History and so on and so on...... It looked like Zombies coming off the plane, but we are so thankful she was able to go and return safely!

Leaving for Washington DC

The St. Matthew 8th graders and chaperones were to leave on Wednesday the 6th but a freak DC snowstorm cancelled flights. I think you can still hear the NOOOOOOOO's!!!!!

Mt. Cortright worked his magic and they found all new flights for all the kids the next morning and off they are. A full week of everything American. Faith as already called from her awesome hotel room where she and Riley and Riley's Grandma are staying in one room. She says things are amazing!
