A camera all it's own

The last six months have been a truly tiresome effort to get up and go to work everyday. My company has not been doing well and so every week I would hear "you may or may not have a job next week". All I wanted to do was work, get a check come home and spend time with Mark and Lo. So having said that, a much needed vacation found us in Wisconsin.

Logan and I learned how to use the digital camera. I know how to use one but she wanted to learn too. She actually took some good photos that were in frame!We have enjoyed our trip to Wisconsin - there is something so relaxing about the cottage there. I also see some spectacular sunsets. A week never seems long enough. Logan has been trilled to spend some quality time with her Grandy and Poppy. She gets more and more excited for their visits as she gets older. We find this to be wonderful. I knew both my mom's parents. I never met my dads. My grandmother raised me until I was four and then died when I was about 7 from injuries sustained in a brutal car accident. My grandfather lived in Florida for many years and died when I was in high school. He lived with us for a year after my grandmother died. It is odd not to have any extended family. I have my Uncle HJ who I see more than anyone else and I don't see him that much. Mark's family is so different from mine. I have really enjoyed sharing time with Eric and Andrew (the twins) and reconnecting with Steve and Beth. Seeing Matt and Jen was a real treat. I especially loved my time with all the young cousins. So funny, full of life, colorful and animated. Logan loved all the attention.
