Dear Family

We love you! We've had so much fun seeing all of you recently. Our gatherings this year have been a blast. J& W, thanks for our amazing grandkids! We loved hanging out at Balboa, and eating the wonderful creations you brought over! Ty, you were very generous to give up your comfy bed for our stay in Utah! (We are still laughing about your Willy Wonka impersonation). We look forward to hearing about your Africa trip. Dookie, we've had fun cheering at your games & seeing your cake masterpieces. Thanks for sharing the Whopenator with us. Happy almost ONE YEAR anniversary! We can't wait for the fun we'll have and the photos you'll take in Hawaii! K & A, your recent news has THRILLED us! We hope this year flies quickly by for you both. Yen, you've made us laugh all summer! We are proud of all your hard work in school, and thanks for coming home to hang out with us and taking our Texas to Utah road trip. Matias, thanks for keeping our home life lively! We are so proud of all your hard work and achievements this summer. Dad and I are so proud of all of you kids. You make our life so rich, full and happy. Here's to our big adventure, coming up next week. Keep the blogs, photos, and fun coming. We send our love to you all!
