A quiet week

It's been a good week at home. Travelling is great, but the thing I missed most of all was my family. Mountain Dew was a distant second. So we spent some days creating new memories, at home, at the beach, and with friends.

We went to Grandville for their 4th of July parade, because we missed the one in our own neighborhood. We didn't know it started at 8:30 AM. But we had a good time in Grandville. At the parade, Eric met a pirate.

We also celebrated Jason's birthday a week early, so he could have some of his friends over for a party. Laura got into a water fight with friends Grace and Micah Henderson.

Today we finish packing up and head out to the airport to fly to Anchorage for the next major phase of the sabbatical. So I'm blessed to say that both the travelling and the family time will continue.
