Duluth...It now begins!

Graham has officially started in Duluth today. He finished up his last job yesterday afternoon, and we spent the evening getting everything loaded into his truck. It really is amazing how much it can hold! He needed a little of everything, as he is going to be living there and remodeling at the same time.

It was a little hard for us to say goodbye early this morning (5am) because it is the first time of many to come. It is really starting. It is exciting and scary at the same time. He made it up there safe and sound, got unloaded, and now is making a game plan for what to do first. He will make his way back here on Friday night to spend time with us and reload for Monday morning.

I was able to send a little surprise gift with him, too. Graham and I love our morning coffee. As I was looking for a nice, new, big mug to send with him, I found one that could be personalized. I had Sean write (draw) on it along with me writing a message. He found it once he got there and unpacked. Needless to say, he loves it! Just a little bit of us with him now.

Wow! This is really happening!

It will all work out! That is great about the mug. I bet he was thrilled.

Patsy,

Our thoughts are with you two during this transition. What a wonderful thing it will be to be together after everything is done. Take care and let us know if you need anything..

How exciting for all of you. Kinda of a bittersweet beginning. I hope you will post pictures of the progress in Duluth. Maybe next summer, we can come up for a couple of days.

Patsy,

We are thinking of you, as we remember those "good-bye's" all too well. So glad that you have friends and family around for support. We will sure miss Graham being around. Hopefully we can find some weekends when he is home to get dinner in. Please let us know if you need anything...ever. We are here for you!
