It is hard to believe that we have actually stayed in one place for an entire year. It has been some heavy duty Wasik family time……it just felt right. My sister’s life was turned upside down when she lost her loving husband to cancer and the dozens of maladies that seem to come with it. My Mom (Wilhelmina) died at 85 years young. We celebrated her life and the power/importance of family when we all got together in the Smoky Mountains. Willa (Willamina), our first grandchild, came joyously into our lives. It is a challenge to balance family time and ties with traveling; but, right now it is those two things combined that make our lives whole. You all travel with us in our hearts. Watch for more details on “City Life” and the joys of being grandparents coming soon.
