Good Bye Day















Today is a sad day for us - Kyle, Heather, Samantha & Emily are on their way to Kuala Lumpur. Heather did an incredible job organizing their whole household - what got shipped; what got stored; what went in suitcases to take with them. Luggage for 4people is plenty then add all the stuff you need for a 3 yr old and 7 mn old for a 24 hour journey and you are definitely over the limit in number & weight! Kyle's parents are flying over with them and staying for about a month to help them get settled. We are grateful they are not alone with the girls, luggage and all the arrangements they need to make once they arrive. The plan is to stay in a temporary apartment until their home is ready with furniture and appliances. They are excited about this new adventure and, although we will miss them all terribly, we are proud of their achievements and know they will make good decisions for their family. Our video cams are all up and running and will allow us to see the girls as they grow. Thank you modern technology!
We toured West Point Military Academy - not your typical college campus! Gorgeous grounds along the Hudson River. The small towns in this area are nestled in the hills and trees - small shops, restaurants and many farmers markets.
PS - Our condolences to fellow Michiganders on the Red Wings loss!
