Crismon and I drove through a terrible rainstorm to Puyallup, WA on Friday to visit my sister, Kathi, in her new home where she and Christiana are sharing together. They have a darling home with a huge backyard, just perfect for their needs.
Cute Chloe is nearly one-year old and it was a treat to see her as well. They have a good garden, grind their wheat by hand, juice every morning, and are reaping the benefits of taking good care of themselves. Kathi fed us a delicious lunch. We couldn't visit fast enough trying to get caught up with each other and our children and grandchildren. That's what we love to talk about!
Kathi is an attentive Grandma to Chloe, tending her four days a week. She is loving being a full-time Grandma now that she has retired as an Attorney.

Just a fifteen minute drive from Kathi's we met the Dennis & Angela Doutre family, also in Puyallup. Their son, Austin, and Julia are developing a sweet relationship. We thought since he was home from BYU-I for the summer and just 3 hours north of us, it would be nice to meet him and get acquainted with his family. We definitely approve of this relationship. There are so many wonderful people in this world. The Church makes us instant friends. They had a scrumptious grilled salmon and chicken dinner ready for us to enjoy with their family. We arrived home safely by 11 p.m., thankful for a very nice day, and for new friendships made.
