Holton Reunion and Costco

Last week, Julia and Benjamin visited Papa (Benjamin's grandfather) in hospice. Chelsea was able to go as well. Unfortunately, he passed away a couple of days ago. We had the honor of meeting him at their Ohio State graduation. He was deeply loved.

Julia and Benjamin then came to DC. For Benjamin, it was a quick overnight, but it was so nice to hug him and catch up. Julia stayed and enjoyed a reunion with her Holton girls. The main attraction was Susannah's daughter--so adorable. Julia also went to dinner and a movie with Emma. 

On the home front, Julia took us (Steven, Brenda, Katie, and me) to Costco. She is a member and lives within walking distance of a Costco in Albuquerque. It definitely wasn't a great idea to go on a Sunday afternoon, but the trip was a huge success! :) Dinner, of course, was a Costco rotisserie chicken. And yes, we'll go back for sure--but probably only when Julia is in town.
