Visiting in New York!

Seth, my brother Steve, and I had the opportunity to visit Elder and Sister Decker (ie. Mom and Dad, Grandma and Grandpa) this past week.  We battled the freezing cold weather!  Seth was especially cold coming from tropical weather so recently.  We had a great time visiting all the church sites and meeting many wonderful people that work with my parents.

We hit the Syracuse scene a few days and saw the family.  Thank you to Tara and Brian for our wonderful accommodations.  We had alot of fun playing with the kids and going through pictures. It was a hard task but Tara even did a photo shoot of Seth.   He tends to make alot of funny faces when he is posing for pictures. We loved going through all the little towns and finding antique stores to reminisce in.  We have seen enough old stuff to last us for another year or so.

My mother broke her wrist on Saturday the 31st of January.  The seat of a piece of exercise equipment at her parents house gave way and she fell trying to catch herself with her hand.  It was her right wrist.  She wasn't even exercising, just sitting there. How is she going to write, paint, do dishes, curl her hair?  Since she is responsible the doctor let her wear a soft cast that she can take off to take a shower.  She is very grateful.  

I visited my good friend Randy Allen.  We knew each other in highschool and still keep in touch.  That was almost 27 years ago! Wow! Time Flies!

We played the domino game Mexican train!  Way fun!  We laughed and laughed.  I even caught a few pictures of Steve wearing an apron and holding a purse!!! (Ok, so he was helping Mom)  I love going to New York!  Now we have to get some of those New Yorkers to come visit us in California.
