What I miss...

So Josh and I were calculating yesterday and realized that we have been here for just over 5 months now. It's gone by so fast in some respects... and others, it's gone by so slow. Since our trip back home for Melody's wedding is drawing nearer, I can't help but think of the things that I am most excited to taste and see.

Taste:
Guacamole (and lots of it)
Mexican food
Maple boy (from Sluys bakery in Poulsbo)
Kettle Chips - black pepper flavor
Milk
Cheese - Tillamock cheddar, medium and sharp :)
Raspberries
Dreyers Ice Cream - cookies & cream, choco-chip cookie dough, mint chocolate chip, etc...

See
Family - especially Melody and Adam's wedding
Friends
NKBC - our supporting church and family
Seattle
Beautiful Poulsbo - it's gorgeous this time of year!

So a note for those of you I am going to get the chance to see and visit with... most likely I will require that part of our "together time" include one of the mentioned "tastes"; I don't have very long before I go another long period of absence with said items :)

Wow... the excitement is brewing knowing I have friends and food to come home too :)

Michelle ~ Josh's sister is getting married, so we're coming home in Aug. for that and then we're staying a little longer to see family and friends. I can't wait!!!
