Corless Connection - 24 October 2010 - Sterling Heights, Michigan


Dear Family,
Cassino Connection - Mom is enjoying her renewed and strengthened connection with her family.  Armando and her are planning to visit relatives in Uruguay this coming week. Mom has not been there for more than 40 years. This should be quite the adventure. - Go Mom!  “Out to discover”!
Busted - Isaiah, on his way to school, was hit by a car.   The Bad News, with several witnesses, there is no clear story as to how it happened  Was he told to stop or go ? The good news is no permanent damage - a broken foot should heal just fine. 
The Arrival - Grandma Sparks has a successfully arrived Michigan. Exhausted, but happy to be here with family. Dad and her have been busy with getting electrical power, gas, phone, internet, dish network TV, a new roof, new washer and dryer, mailbox keys, tricycle assembled, front door lock repaired and bank accounts opened. Wednesday morning the moving truck arrived. It took 3 men 5 hours to unload and turn the condo into a warehouse of her personal stuff. Each day and one step at a time, we have been unpacking and getting her “matter organized”. It will take a few weeks to get things as she would like, but we going as fast as an 85 year old body will go. She really likes her new home and thinks she will be happy here.  We all hope she will!  Welcome to Michigan, Grandma!

Sunday Dinner - Dad and Grandma went to see the grand buddies perform in the primary Sacrament meeting Program of North Shores ward.  Afterwards they all came to Papa’s house for dinner, video conference with Lara, canoe rides, campfire, home movies from the1980’s and games. It was so fun to be together. Dad made dinner and set table like Nona would have it.  
Love y’all,
 Mom & Dad
