The Scofields



My sister Christen and her family are moving to a tiny little island in the Marshall Islands. They fly out tomorrow. She currently lives in AZ and though we may only see her once a year or twice a year when we are lucky, I am going to miss her very much. She will be living there for two years. She will be very close to Hawaii and welcomes anyone to meet her in Hawaii. I am going to miss talking to her everyday. We are also connected very much through the internet. We both love to digital scrapbook/storybook. She will not have high speed internet access on the island so sharing our projects will not be likely. She did say that every now and then she is going to take her teenage daughter to Hawaii and get a hotel room for the weekend and go to movies and digitally scrapbook. Wouldn't that be a scrapbook crop you would want to attend, in Hawaii. If she is reading this by chance before she leaves tomorrow: Christen, I love you very much. I am going to miss you. Change is hard and I can't stand not knowing your number and when I will talk to you next. I know we will keep in touch. I can't stand the thought of not seeing you next time I go to AZ to visit. That is probably when it will all hit me. Be safe and enjoy the island! What a great adventure for your family. I am glad we got to have some really fun times this summer.


Our girls are just two months apart in age. It is strange to think that they
will be four years old when they get back from the island.

Channon,

Have you sister see if she can get Vonage where she is going. I have some friends in Okinawa and that is what they use to call home. It is a local Utah number (for them) and it is done through the internet and only costs $25 a month for unlimited calling time. Sometimes the connection isn't great during the call but it's better than not. Just a thought.
