New Life

So Jack and I have finally recovered from our illnesses and are enjoying the bliss of springtime. We had lots of fun this weekend hanging with friends, browsing a bookstore, eating yummy blueberry muffins (recipe coming soon), playing ultimate frisbee in the sun and visit with family.

At dinner last night at Uncle Bill and Aunt Carol's a family reunion video hit the bigscreen. It was so cool to see family members I have never met, and for the others to reminisce about loved ones who have grown or passed on. This reminded me of how important it is to be thankful for the family we have. We both have both of our parents, siblings and a large extended family that we can still keep in touch with, spend vacations/holidays with and learn from. I hope that we don't neglect the opportunities we have to give and receive love, memories and wisdom.
