Still here!

I'm still here. I haven't made any cards for a while. I have been working on my daughter's scrapbook that I promised her for college graduation a year ago. It seems once she made the announcement to me in January of 2009 that she planned on joining the Peace Corps, I couldn't work on the book. Well now that she is in Bulgaria, settled in with her new family, spending 4 - 6 hours a day learning their language and teaching English for the rest of the day, I seem to feel a little better about it. I still miss her!!! That won't change until I get to go visit next year! I finally got to talk to her last Sunday, gotta love technology! I got to see her face and hear her voice! She sent me some pictures of life there. I would love to sit and scrap all those new pictures! I have decided that for every 3 or 4 pages of her first book I will do 1 page for the new one! I need to learn how to take better photos! Sorry for the blinding flash! This was from the 8 hours waiting at JFK for the first flight to Germany. I am so glad she found her black and white cookie! I think it was the main reason she wanted to go back to New York! She was there a couple of years ago to take part in a mock U.N.

This is from her going away party. 4 generations! It is almost unheard of in Bulgaria to have a Great Grandmother.

These pictures are also from her going away party. She is with my youngest sister in the top photo. The bottom photo is my youngest sister again with her husband and her twin brother (sorry for flashing out your face Jeff), his wife and their daughter. Megan is the oldest granddaughter in the family and Emily is the youngest.

Thanks for looking. I will try harder at posting! Thanks for your patience!
