Home Temporarily!

We returned to Mesa for a couple of weeks to catch up with family and check on things here. Tomorrow we are off  for a week of family, friends and meetings in Utah and one week from today will arrive in Idaho. School starts there the 15th and we will be ready to coordinate our Africa projects with those in Idaho.

It has been so good to be with family. We all gathered together for the Labor Day holiday with a BBQ and swim to celebrate Dan's birthday. I thought everyone would have plans and we would be lucky to have any "takers" but it worked out that four families could join us by evening and we had a great time together.  Dan's parents were in town so they joned in. It was so fun to see these great people again.

Each day has been as full as we could make it and we still didn't get to everything we would have liked but are grateful to have had this time.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DAN, WE LOVE YOU!
