Ha-Ha I get it now.

My family moved back to America a couple years. I chose to stay behind for another two years, by myself, going to school online and working as an after school art teacher in Heidelberg, Germany. After I had my fill of Bratwurst and sauerkraut I threw a dart and landed in sunny, yet chilly, San Francisco, California. Before then, I had only ever traveled as far west as Texas. I had no friends, no family and no idea about California. At 21 years of age, all I had was my youth and my stubbornness. Man what it is to be young and brave.

p r o j ec t five

it’s relative your one stop thank you shop My Husband, David, and his two older brothers put

I thought this was such a great idea, one that

together a happy birthday, happy anniversary, happy

needed a proper presentation. So, I took it upon

retirement, and thank you package for their folks,

myself to prepare a greeting card that gave them

since all three things happened within months of

all of the details of their trip. Inside: two birthday

one another. The gift: tickets to the last Red Sox

cards, an anniversary card, itinerary and maps to

vs. Yankee series in the old Yankee stadium, train

both the hotel and stadium. Needless to say I won

tickets to and from NY, and hotel stay.
