Olivia and Connor have completed a year in the "newlywed, we work four jobs and go to school full time budget" apartment. Finally, they are upgrading just a wee bit. We took a weekend to help them pack and to enjoy some time together.
Our hotel housed a cute little gym with all of the basics, so that's where I began each day. Until cancer caused me to stay in America longer than anticipated, we had moved often. Very often. Mucho moving.
Which means we have a stash of boxes and packing material we have accumulated over the years. Newspapers ten plus years old, boxes with all sorts of things written on them from various moves.
So many memories were lying hidden among the layers of cardboard, I kept snapping pictures and sending them to the family group chat.
We made time to visit Olivia at work, the Beautiful Lives Thrift Outlet, and we picked up some coffee on the way for Olivia and her coworkers.
Church together was the cherry on top. Filling up a pew happens so infrequently that it's an extra special treat.
