First of all, Jens and I had a great time in San Jose! We enjoyed navigating and finding our favorite areas. We had fun working out in the hotel gym and walking down to the corner Bagel Street for breakfast. Of course, it wasn't complete without stopping next door to Starbucks for Kristin's Venti Iced Soy Chai.
We spent Thursday traveling north to have lunch with our good friend Dan Oditt then over the Bay Bridge to check out San Francisco. It was a beautiful day. The only day that wasn't cloudy and didn't rain. Friday we drove south to Santa Cruz. Checked out the beach, picked up seashells for the kids and then headed over to Gilroy and the outlets there. Good thing Jens was in the shopping mood.
After a "bit" of shopping we went to see The Benchwarmers. It was pretty funny!Saturday morning a tearful Kristin headed toward her gate......But very excited to see her kids. After arriving home safely and getting some pretty big hugs....Eryn turned to Oma and said, "This is my mommy!" So cute that, despite her unwillingness, Mommy got another BIG SQUEEZE! We spent a wonderful Easter weekend with Oma and the family that are still here with us in San Antonio. We can't thank our special Oma enough for the love and care she gives to all of us. She is so much fun to be around and we were all sad to see her go.
Then, more company...as Oma headed out our good friend Loralee headed in. She was able to stay with us for three nights of Great conversation and one day spent shopping in Fredericksburg. It was a lot of fun. So......
Last night was the first night of actual "loneliness". It did take a little time for me to fall asleep, but we all had a good sleep, despite the loud rain, thunder and lightning storm in the middle of the night. (it's about time!)
Just wanted to thank all Family and Friends for your love, support and patience with us (me! ) It's been a crazy time......does it ever stop? Still, I feel truly blessed. I know Heavenly Father is leading and guiding our family to where we need to be. And, I couldn't do any of this without the help of visits, phone calls, e-mails, etc. from all of you.
Love, Hugs and Kisses to all......
~Kristi & Family

If only I was there to reciprocate all the help you offered to me when I was moving! I feel so useless. It's frustrating to me that I have so much time on my hands right now & I really would love to be busy helping you in some way. I love the picture of you walking on the beach. I really miss you guys.
