Tuesday, February 2nd

Tonight I am packing to get ready for my first big trip to Oregon, Wisconsin. Henry, who is currently five and is "tired of being five" will soon be SIX years old. This is so hard for me to believe! But his birthday is February 6th and he will be SIX.

I am packing all of my winter clothes as I know it will be cold there - lots of snow I am reminded - and "Bring your boots."
It will be wonderful to see my little ones once again and to be with them to see all of their friends and go to lunch at their schools.

Everyone is back to their jobs, responsibilities, etc. Rob and Liz are planning their upcoming wedding and party this summer. Matthew is back from his trip to Egypt, Oman, etc., camels and pyramids. He had a great time and is planning to head to Vienna this next week for a seven day trip. He and Anna are based in DC currently with Jazz enjoying the snow. David and Lolly and the boys I will see very soon to catch up on all of their activities - I know they went skiing this last past weekend. And Rebecca is currently at Cornell University and then on to Canada for her school for two weeks...while trying to keep up with her work at Atlantic in New York. Mark is in the city working at Columbia Presbyterian trying to keep everything somewhat normal.


I am very excited for my trip tomorrow. It will be the first time I have been out of Phoenix since last summer. I hope I can handle the cold weather, although it is suppose to be colder here tomorrow. I will have lots of pictures to send to you all. Thank you for reading my blog - with working it seems like I never have enough time.

Everyone take care - and thank you for sending your thoughts this way. You are very important to me! Suzy
