Bonjour,
It has been awhile since you heard from us. We have been staying busy.
Joe has been busy getting meetings lined up. We have also been

celebrated her birthday in Texas before we left, then in Branson with
my family, and again yesterday with Joe’s grandparents.

Until next time,
Joe, Laura, Gilbert, Danny, and Bonnie
