To a Bright New Year

Hello Friends!
I am happy to report that I will be regularly posting now that I have access to the Internet. It is a great blessing. I have so much news and Russell is always learning new things. My favorite thing so far about having the Internet is I can BYU TV all day long. There are such amazing and praiseworthy programs. Things that are actually good, on TV. Who knew?
So the Bode Family update.
Our family vacation in December was fantastic. Russell and I began our trip on December 4th. Traveling from Norfolk to Denver where we were greeted warmly by my Moms best friend. What a rescue that was. I might have managed all of my luggage, but it might have involved stopping to pick up the things I dropped and the things Russell was throwing over the edge of the stroller.
We stayed with my Grandpa for the week, while also visiting my other Grandparents during the day. It was great trip, everyone was really welcoming.
On Saturday we moved on to Beautiful, Bright, Sunny, Warm, California. Randy was able to join us there before we left. Everyone was wonderful and it was pleasure to see our friends and Family. Thank You Everyone!
