Meeting in the Middle

Last weekend Derek and I headed up to meet mom and Nana in Columbus, Indiana. They were there so Nana could spend some time with her sister Gladys. This was to be their last time together since both of them were getting to be too old to travel. It was sad over hearing them say good-bye. I promptly requested that Jenna and I commit to live together after her 80th birthday. Derek says what will be funny is when him and Trey outlive us and they go off to live in Mexico together as old men. For now Jenna and I have decided to either move to Cape Town or Costa Rico (considering the healthcare needs we have) or we will couch surf our children and niece/nephew's homes.

Sounds like a plan.

Colburns

Jenna and Trey and Tana and Harlee drove out from Arizona to stay with us for a long weekend. It was such a great visit. We did a lot of touristy stuff. Becky and Phil with Sidnie watched the girls for us so we could all go out for a big sushi dinner and some honky tonking. One night Derek stayed with so I and Jenna and Trey could go to see Don Williams. The next night Derek and them went to the Grand 'ole Opry. On Sunday we spent the afternoon with the Eli's carving pumpkins and teaching Sidnie how to throw a temper tantrum.

We did a lot of eating out and touring around, but there is still much left to do and see together so I guess they will have to come back the end of each Summer!

Montana is such a funny monkey and Harlee is the sweetest cuddle bug ever.

The Cooks

We headed up to Baltimore for Nancy and Charlie's wedding. It was a great weekend and I am so happy for them. Still waiting for the professional pictures but here are some from the weekend....
