A new dawn

How about that---the grand kids are getting older and doing new and good things!  Faustina scored the game tieing goal in her soccer game, Henry took first place for 7th graders with his drawing and Leo connected for the game winning RBI in his little league baseball game.  All that and without any help from Grandpa!!!
The Lees in South Bend helped Terry celebrate her birthday on the Wednesday the 24th, the Lees in Madison helped celebrate her birthday on Friday the 26th and finally, on the day, the 27th, Terry and Carmen finished the celebration yesterday when we arrived in St. Paul.  Grandma Terry asked Leo to get a hit yesterday for her birthday and that is what he did!
It will be a few days of unpacking and settling in and then we need to map out the summer.  I could get into a LONG list of things that need/should be done this summer so we need to talk and be sure we put things in the right order.  We know we will visit Dave and Marlys and from there go on a camping trip that will take us to 3 presidental libraries and then the Saunders gathering in July and of course there are MANY things on the home front in St. Paul that need/have to/should get done so planning is in order big time.
We arrived in St. Paul early PM yesterday happy to get out of the car and off our behind.  It is fun to travel and to see things and people but it is also always fun to get home.  I think Terry wants to get some plants today for the garden.
It is late in the morning but I just finished my FP.  Time to get some more things unpacked.
