We started the month out doing some cleaning in the house while Mom and Dad took Isabel to the Franklin Conservatory.  Then for the first week while we were off work we went to the Zoo, The Works, Slate Historical Farm, and playing in the park.  I got things ready for another consignment sale this month.  We finished cleaning the house up before our guests arrived.  Kate, Brody, and Joselyn moved in with us on the 17^th for six weeks while they get things settled here in Ohio before going back to Virginia.  We sent Soda to stay with Mom and Dad while everyone moved in the first week and picked her up the following weekend.  We went to Chillicothe for a surprise retirement Party for Rev. Jim Grove after being part of the church and community for 41 years.  I ended the month going to a party for a friend.  It was a potluck (I made loaded tater Ta Tas) and it was a good time out before she went in for a surgery the following week.  We are all doing well and adjusting to the extra family at home.

God Bless,

Rebecca, Tracy, Isabel, and Soda
