My oh my, how time flies................


I know it is a little on the late side. And I can't use the excuse that I had to wait for my pictures to be developed first. It is just, well we've been very busy. We had a wonderfull time in Grand Rapids with Mary and Isaac. The picture from the airplane is of Chicago for the final flight to G.R.(Grand Rapids).


Here are Mary and Isaac with the book that they Illustrated for Pieter Buma, whom we had the pleasure of meeting too yet after the graduation ceremony. And Mary by herself. That was a rare occasion. One is never far from the other.
We also had the pleasure of meeting Isaac's family. It was really fun to get to know them and spend that time with them before the upcoming wedding in August. The graduation ceremony was held at the Van Andel Arena.

Located in downtown Grand Rapids. Lots of room inside for all 900 graduates and their families. It was one of the biggest gatherings of people that I have ever seen. It was really exciting to be there.It was wonderfull to see how much things have changed from the time we brought our girl to Grand Rapids four years ago, and left her all alone. To see how God took care of her and provided her with all her needs. And so we have come to the closing of one chapter in their lives and soon the opening of another one.

The proud parents are looking over the shoulder of their children. It is great to see how God worked, building this relationship between these two fine people.

Time sure does fly doesnt it?? But Id rather not think about that...It was nice that you posted those pictures on your blog, now I get to see them too!Im sure when you got home you loaded all the new pictures on the laptop and then did a slide show presentation for anyone interested in the trip, I would have loved to see them, but this will do for now, and maybe when we come in december you can give me an updated slideshow presentation of all the pictures Ive missed! I love you Dad! Dianna
