My Week

Rachel’s parents left last Sunday with Owen. Later, Rachel, Levi, and I went to a Mexican restaurant with my parents and my nephew, Nolan. Afterwards, my dad went back to his house while the rest of us went to a local farm to pick berries and flowers. Levi really enjoyed this and loved running around.

The rest of the week is a blur, but at some point I got some help from my dad setting up a new soft-top gazebo in our backyard. It’s made it through the last three storms without any issues.

I also fell back in love with a local favorite burger joint, BBops, and ended up grabbing some food there with my dad and Levi before heading to a park.

On Saturday, we picked up Owen from the airport. It turned into a bit of a fiasco—Delta messed up the arrangements for him to fly solo, and we had a moment of panic thinking they might not let him on the plane. Thankfully, they did, and he made it home safely.

Today, we visited a church for the third time. We’ve been enjoying it, and even though they recently moved a bit farther away, we like the teaching and the people. Since we haven’t found anything closer, we’ll likely keep going there.

I’m writing this from Starbucks while Owen plays his new Donkey Kong game on his Switch 2.
