packing my "baby"

Hi everyone,

Sad day today. Jana had a bunch of girls overnight last night and as I cleaned up the basement this morning, it made me very sad to think how all these girls will not be here all the time any more. Then we had to pack up the van and Jana's car with all her stuff and that made me even sadder. I can't believe we are actually sending our baby off to college. 25 1/2 years of kids in the home and now it's going to be finished. I can't say I'm looking forward to it, but then I guess, I really don't have much choice in the matter. :) Jana is ready though, so that's good.

We will be getting to Chandler tomorrow night at around 7:30 or 8:00. I don't think Scott is coming along. Be kind of a quick trip, so he says he'll come some other time.

Jana has freshman orientation and they have stuff for parents as well next Saturday the 22nd, so I am going to stay in Chandler Monday night through Friday. Den will come back up on Friday and then we'll head to Sioux Center early Saturday morning. So hopefully, I'll get to see most of you Vander Woude's in those few days!

Today is our 29th Anniversary and we are going to a the wedding of one of Scott's friends. How romantic right? This was another romance that kind of started in our basement when all Scott's friends would hang around on Sunday nights.

Take care. See you soon
Love,
Arla
