Garry and I just returned home from a ten day drive to New Jersey and back. His niece was getting married on Friday, and we arrived the Sunday before at my dad's house. My two sisters came out and we went through a lot of the stuff in the house. Amazing that we got through as much as we did, because if you stop and read old letters from the 1970's, WWII and the Civil War, it slows you down.
We brought home a variety of things, including a rocking chair that was my great grandmothers and a table that belonged to my mothers aunt that I plan to refinish. The pickup truck was full!
It was nice to spend time with family, his father, all of Garry's siblings (in photo above) and many of the nieces and nephews were out for the wedding and the beach party the next day.
Everything is fine in the village, the crops are growing and all are safe. We got a cute video of baby Sofia crawling around recently. Vlad in the army had a recent injury and was in hospital, it didn't sound too serious. He received a heroism medal and a promotion earlier this year. Here's a couple photos from the village church and a picnic after earlier this month.
