This blog is a journal of my 3 week trip to see our daughter Laura in Finland. My friend Ruth S. and I left on Sept 15, 2010 from Chicago IL, arrived in Stockholm Sweden, traveled to Finland, took an overnight cruise trip to St. Petersburg Russia, back to Helsinki Finland, then back to Sweden and left to come back to the states on Oct 6, 2010

I exported these posts from my main blog so they had their own blog and didn't get lost in the middle of my "family life" posts. When I posted them I also changed the format to "first to last" posts, rather than the normal "last posts first." Now you can start at the beginning and read thru to the last.

I really appreciate all those who let me know you stopped by! Thanks for visiting.

A little about Laura!



This was originally a post I had done on my main blog for Laura's birthday.
 I thought I would add it over here on this one since I dedicate this blog to her.  I love you Laura!


 
May 19, 1981--The years pass so quickly! I was going to add come commentary here about remembering some things, and forgetting some things, but decided to skip that line of thought, as I know good and well that my children who read this would definitely comment on it, and probably not too complimentary to me....SO! Back to Laura's birthday! (Whew my 3 days have passed that I had a 24, 25 & 26 yr. old!)
Laura is #3 in our family. In many families, that would make her the youngest, or at least among the younger ones. In ours it makes her one of the "older" girls! When I was working on getting pictures together to post here, I was definitely having a problem scaling back. I wanted to use most all of them! I found so many of my favorites, and they brought back so many wonderful memories. I wish I had them all scrapbooked, but still working on that one.
Happy Birthday Laura, from each one of us! We're thinking about you, hoping you have a wonderful day and enjoy the memories in pictures! Love and hugs from all
