Saying goodbye at the airport
It's always hard to say goodbye especially when you have family living on other continents. You realize more and more the importance of having family close by. The last time I lived on the same continent with all my siblings was 10 years ago. 10 years!!! These past 3 weeks were wonderful to spend with my siblings and they're wives. Manne and Heidi are going to have a baby in November and move to South Africa for a few months. They don't know what the future will hold for them. They have 3 countries to choose to live between. Mickie will go to South Africa in January to work at the Place of Restoration and after that her life can take her many places. To say the least, these past 3 weeks were very special. When we all get together we truly have so much fun.
Manne and Heidi visiting Memphis
It's been wonderful having Manne and Heidi visiting us here in Memphis. We went to Nashville and visited with Bill and Mary Jean (Will's mom and dad). The whole clan also had a great time at Pickwick fishing and swimming in the lake. Manne and Mickie got to play lots of music together. It is so sad that Manne and Heidi had to leave us tonight to head back to Sweden.

Playing piano with Papa
One of Olivia's favorite things to do is playing the piano. Whenever she and Papa get together they play one of her favorite songs that Papa wrote called "Happy Day"
I went on my first road trip with the little ones. Thank God I had my sister, Mickie, with me. She was able to keep me sane by stuffing pacies in Olivia and Aaron's mouth everytime I needed peace and quiet. Granny got to meet Aaron for the first time. She had prayed for a great grandson to carry on the name and sure enough, God answered her prayers.
