Home again

And now we are back from our month long vacation to the states.  What a trip!  Reggie started in Texas, at a three day school.  I flew to San Jose, Ca, where he met up with me and we started our travels.  We started out going to Grass Valley, to pick up Kristyna, then on to Magalia, to stay with my sister.  From there, we drove up to Grants Pass, OR. to my Father's house, and the next day drove to Eugene to have lunch with my Mom.  We spent several days back in Grants Pass, then drove back to Magalia, taking Kristyna and Malachi back to Grass Valley the same day.  We stayed severl days before driving down to Palmdale, to visit with Harry and Donna.  After several wonderful days of visiting, shopping and being able to soak in the spa, we drove back to San Jose.  The day after Christmas, Reggie drove to Paradise to get Gwen and her family, and they stayed with us in San Jose for a few days, before Reggie had to drive them back again.  Then we stayed put for the rest of the time in SJ, visiting with his Mom, Dad and Dixie and even got to see his brother, George and his family, before it was time to head back to Germany.  Whew!  Sound like alot?  It was, but worth every minute.  Happy New Year, Everyone!
