Theo's Visit


Tim's Dad came for a visit over the summer. He stayed with us for about 12 days. A few of the days he spent on his own exploring the National Mall/Smithsonian. We went to the Holocaust Museum with him. We took him down to Fredericksburg and did a walking tour through the old town. Tim also took him to Mount Vernon. We were able to go to Baltimore and catch an Orioles game (which I believe was his first National bball game). Tim and Theo also found time for a bit of landscaping in our back yard.

Visit to St. Louis






Although I am always happy to visit home ~ it was a bittersweet visit. My Dad's mother was in a hospice and passed away while I was in St. Louis visiting. It's a rare occasion that I am around to help my family so I was grateful to be there for my Dad. I did take advantage of my time and caught a Cardinals game in the new stadium with my brother. I also was able to spend a lot of time with my nieces and nephews.
