My sister Ivonne Reyes and her husband, Luis, came for a visit Saturday. We went out to eat at Ridgewood BBQ, which we all enjoyed. Then we went for a walk at Watauga Lake and stopped in to visit our daughter, April. Luis and Ivonne had come to meet us at a hotel in Roanoke, Va., in January after dropping their daughter Mia off at Dulles Airport in Washington D.C. This time they came to Elizabethton and stayed for a few hours before going back to pick up Mia, who had spent the spring semester in Europe.
Luis and Ivonne work in the New York City School System. They live in Teaneck, N.J., and we hope to visit them in the next year or so. We are still looking forward to meeting another sister, Monica, who plans to visit from Venezuela this summer.
Meanwhile, our first grandchild is due to arrive tomorrow as our daughter April will have labor induced. Jesse James will make his grand entrance into this world.
