Last day

(Matthew cleaning up after the dog)

Only one more sleepless night.

Thanks to our dear friend, Miss Regina, I was able to only hike with Jane this morning ( getting ready for the rim-to-rim).

Matthew and Chrissie adore Miss Regina (and Matthew isn't easily impressed). We met for lunch and the kids were worn out by the time we got home. Not only do the kids adore Regina, but, I do too. Quite honestly, who doesn't? She's an amazing friend to everyone. Her husband works with Rick and they have been so much apart of our life here in Phoenix.

Chrissie was sparkle girl today: if someone "didn't want light" (I believe she meant "did") she'd take a sparkle from her dress, throw into the sky and there would be light.

Rick is flying home today.
