We got up at 5am and had coffee with Mom and Dad. Yes it was sad to
say goodbye, it always is. And we drove to Salem and had a big breakfast
at Denny's. I ate blueberry pancakes. They aren't gluten free, but
I'll be good when I get home. Then we drove to Portland and filled the
rental car with gas before dropping it off. Then we took a shuttle to the
airport and checked our bags. We had to pull stuff out of 2 bags because
they were overweight by 2 pounds. We have big carry-ons. Much
bigger then I like. Going through security was easy. I was surprised
because I was carrying a pressure cooker. But the airline website said it
was ok to carry on. And I informed the security we had it. It was
no problem at all. I hope it fits in the overhead compartment. So
now we wait. We are 3 hours early and siting at the gate. Maybe I
can Skype Juergen?
My niece had a beautiful baby girl named Olivia Rose (Beautiful name). Everyone is very excited and thank God healthy! Congratulations to the whole family! Hugs to my sister Shelley who is now a proud grandma for the 2nd time. My sister Dianna has 6 grand kids (I think). My brother and I are too young for such an blessing. At least our kids are too young. I'm going to have to wait to be called grandma. Here is a cool picture I took off Shelley's blog. It shows Eric (the tired but proud grandpa) Lissa with her first daughter Charlotte, and then a sleeping Olivia Rose. 3 generations in one shot. How fast life goes by! How beautiful life can be!
