WOW- it has been a while since we have been on! It doesn't seem like that long, but time is flying by. We are less than 2 weeks from June 1! Yikes! As a family, we have been quite busy. Here is the month of May by numbers, and this has only been the first 20 days:
2 Graduation Parties- Congratulations Austin and Casey Freiburger (our nephews), who have graduated from high school and will be attending college next year!
6 high school soccer games. Carlos, Austin, Casey, Matt, Derek, and Ben are all in soccer, and we have been lucky enough to see them all play!
1 Mystery Trip- Pastor Melissa and myself took 8 members of Zion on a mystery trip (Thursday, May 19). Our stops included Grandview University, the State of Iowa Historical Building, and the Iowa State Capital! It was a neat trip, I got to walk the winding staircase to the gold dome, and learned a lot about higher education and the building of the state of Iowa!
500 Miles- Melissa and I took a quick vacation to the Chicago on Friday and Saturday, May 13 and 14. We drove to Cumberland, rode the Blue Line in and stayed at the Swissotel for an evening. We had a certificate for the executive suite (which had 4 TVs), and free breakfast Saturday morning. The view was great, the price was right, and the morning buffet was fantastic! We rounded out our trip with a Saturday trip to Shedd Aquarium and really enjoyed ourselves. If you get the chance to head to Shedd- GO!
WE hope you are all doing well. Keep us update on what is happening with you! We are safe, healthy, and happy, so life is good. Have a great weekend! -The Watermans
