Bay Area Fun

Grandma Jean, Jordan, and Ella

Last week, we made a little trip up to the Bay Area to visit family and pick up some things. Ella and I flew up on Monday and Jordan drove up on Thursday. Jordan's grandma, Grandma Jean, had just been put into the an assisted living home and was moving out of her house. The sweet and kind grandma she is, gave us some of her belongings, including a car and the Scott family genealogy. Jordan's parents also met us there from Washington and gave us some furniture. We scored! Now our house actually looks furnished and feels more like a home. After our trip, we looked at the many boxes of genealogy we received and are soo excited to learn more about Jordan's family history. Grandma Jean is an amazing person who loves her family deeply. We are so blessed we get to have the family history and hope to keep up with the amazing work she has put into this.
While we were there, we were able to visit with family and see a few friends we haven't seen in a while. We love the Bay Area. Every time Jordan and I go up there, we always say "we hope someday we can live here". Beside the fact that you can't find a house for under a half a million dollars, you can't beat the beautiful weather and the friends and family. Maybe that will happen. You never know.
