Where did May go?



Greetings to all my faithful readers! It's been over a month since I've written a blog and to tell you the truth, I'm having a bit of difficulty now getting two pictures to post. I guess I'm one who just has to use this technology more often for it to sink in. With hope and a prayer I'm going to attempt to add two pictures to this post. They will both be of Jim's mom's 80th birthday celebration. I would include pictures from Sarah's graduation, but I'm sad to say that they were somehow deleted from our memory stick so they're gone. Bummer!

Our highlights from May included two trips. The first trip was a road trip to Califonia to be a part of Sarah's graduation from college! Yes! She completed her BA in English and will be credentialed in Secondary Education as well. She did graduate, but in CA student teaching occurs after all the course work, so Sarah is scheduled to do 90 days of student teaching in the fall. Her student teaching will take place in a Lutheran school as well as a public middle school in Orange County. It was a wonderful weekend with Sarah and Ingrid. Much to celebrate and be thankful for!

The second trip was just this past weekend. Jim and I flew to Denver to spend the Memorial weekend with Jim's parents, sister and husband, other relatives and friends, as well as Sarah and Ingrid once again! As I mentioned, Carole celebrated her 80th birthday. It was quite the gathering with lots of good cheer! Peg, Jim's sister, made beautiful plans and all came off seamlessly. We praise God for Carole's life.

Well, that's May in a nutshell. Of course, there were many other happenings, including last night when my 6th grade class from Shepherd of the Desert graduated from 8th grade. Jim and I were the musicians. What a joy!

Looking ahead in June...two trips once again. The first begins on June 3rd, a roadtrip to Nebraska. After returning from that trip we'll have just 24 hours at home and leave on a business trip to Australia and Singapore. Hopefully I'll get another chance to blog the end of June.

Grace and Peace to you all, in the wonderful name of Jesus. JOY!!
