The Bells' go to Washington, DC


Matt, Caroline and Raquel have moved to Maryland so that Matt can continue to work as staff for Senator Mike Lee and hopefully attend George Washington University for his law degree.

Sweet baby Caroline got sick just before they were to leave, so Raquel and Caroline stayed with us
until it was time for them to fly out.  Here are a few delicious pictures. . .

THAT is the face I got to see for 10 straight days!!! 

With the bedhead and concentrating on a Baby Einstein DVD

A fun ride on Uncle Tys' shoulders. . .


"Aw Grandma, I just woke up and there you are with that camera in my face again!"

Love my new dolly!

A happy girl!  (But like her mom says. . .she is NOT one who can just roll out of bed in the morning and look spectacular--the hair, that is--it's the blessed curly hair thing!)

We had a great time together and made some good memories.  It is a bitter-sweet time for Dan and I as parents and grandparents!  We are so happy for Matt and Raquel to leave the nest and FLY!  But I will sorely miss seeing them and squishing that Yummy Caroline.  Thank goodness for Skype and Holidays!
