"Go East", they said...: Large Family Perks

Dear Friend;

Come along, make haste and join us in our adventures while living "In The East".

We are living in the east, geographically speaking, after a sudden work transfer beckoned us almost across the entire country, splitting our family in half with grown children/grandchildren remaining behind on the west coast.

We moved into our new home April/06 but never knew it would be God's providence to endure another move for work and positioning for a future medical situation. We moved again amidst 4 feet of snow in mid Dec/08.

We hope to continue sharing our pioneering moments with our family and friends back home, creating an environment for tenderly passing along the new memories we'll be making over here in the east, those that will stand the test of time in both thought and deed.

Sprinkling some ambiance into the mix will be a fully loaded and most positive outlook while we're on this adventure and new challenge together.

Please join us while we journey onward. Feel free to email me with your comments, questions or ideas. We welcome you here.

Sursum Corda!
Renee

Large Family Perks

Life within a large family presents various situations, perks if you will, especially when there are much older and very young children all present at the same time. With extra family visiting for their vacation time, we (the parents) are enjoying the perks of having a visiting resident piano teacher in our home, one who has been spending time assisting her little brother and sister in laws with their lessons.

Our piano teacher had to fold in early this year due to having a looming operation herself and a very unwell husband. Therefore, perks such as this one might seem like nothing to some, but for us, it's wonderful to listen to children begging for just one more duet together with her.
