A Chilean Adventure

Time keeps ticking away, but I’m glad that I can still just feel normal and enjoy my last few weeks in the U.S. I traveled home for the long weekend and had a nice time with the whole family. Saturday we painted the dining room in our house, and the next day Mom and I baked some cream rolls. Great bonding.

I also got some great news Friday night. Mom said, “Well, your dad tells me I should go and apply for a passport.” She kind of seemed interested in visiting at one point, but a lot of times those decisions linger out there and nothing happens. Not this time! She and Kayla are planning to visit the week before Easter. It’s going to be some great mother-daughter(s) bonding time. I’m really excited that hopefully I can show them a good time on their first international experience.

I haven’t heard from Danielle for some time. I left a message Friday, but I need to try to call her again soon. It’s probably good for us to communicate our plans…
