I have been away a while.

This summer went by in a flash. There is so much that has happened, I could probably write a book. After Laura's wedding we spent a few days together alone and we went to Disneyland for a day.




We went and stayed at Sophia's for a few days and Roelof helped them with the room upstairs and the pantry. I spent some time with the kids and kept my exercise up.

We Came home the back way and it was a really peaceful drive. I totally enjoyed it.

Roelof and Adriaan continued to work on the basement, and I helped a neighbor train his dog. He was totally wild with no manners. He kind of reminded me of my old dog dusty, when I was a kid.


I kept looking for a job and ended up finding the cute great dane puppy in the classifieds. Isn't he the cutest! No I didn't get him.

The weather started changing and got cooler. We had another special event at daybreak with the opening of our North Shore. Now we have a little beach and we had caterers come and serve us some pretty wonderful food. But the storm kicked up and blew like crazy but by then we were safe inside at one of the models with my friend Maria and her daughter Rachel. (one of Roelof's students.)

September came in and Sophia and Elena, and Ethan Celebrated Birthdays.
(More pictures to follow about these birthdays). Flowers for Elena from Liliaan.




Then I got a job at Kennecott Copper and have been working now for a full week. I am a receptionsist and work in a little place called copperton. It reminds me of Ramah somehow. I guess because I pass a cemetary like the one they have there.


Roelof at Brighton
Last Weekend Roel and I headed for the hills on the Motorcycle and enjoyed the peaceful views at Brighton.

My next blog will probably be about our finished Basement! Stay tuned for more pictures!
