After a longer than we expected drive from Lake Havasu City to North LA on Christmas Eve the kids were quite ready to get out of the van to be greeted by their Grandma Jay's open arms and exclamations of how much they have grown and changed in the past few years.
Jay's boyfriend, Nelson, is from El Salvador. It's been fun to speak with him in Spanish. Her neighbors are Venezuelan also so we've had lots of practice. And they all have declared our kids have no accents...us on the other hand. HA! Our kids commented on all the people that are from other countries here in LA.
Tomorrow we head off to the town we grew up in, Hemet. We'll be there for a couple days only. And then we head back to the LA area to spend time with Scott's Mom and step-dad before we head to Nevada for a meeting.

Wow Hemet. I haven't been there for along time. I think it has been about 7 years. I would really like to keep up with your furlough. when in the midwest please let us know where you will be. We are willing to drive and would love to see you all and meet you as a sister in Christ.
It has been 4 years for me. The last time I was there it was for my Grandma's funeral...not so good for memories. This time was great though.
I wil ltry to remember to send you an itinerary. We are headed to Chadron, NE in a couple weeks.
