Hey Guys! Just saw your pics from the zoo. How fun and M was completely cute as usual. I thought you'd all like an animal postcard after that experience! I went a couple of years ago and the giraffes were my favorite. I was glad to see M picked out a stuffed one!!! Well, hope you summer is filled with many fun adventures. I know I'm planning some!

Hey Kiddo-For some reason these cute owls just screamed to me that you should get them in the mail! Have you been enjoying your first few moments of break? I know I have filled these days with fun, family and friends. Today I got back to Rhinelander after our first softball game. We Won!!! My parents and I ate at one of our favorite spots, Pat's Tavern. Wednesday is taco night! So yummy. Home is totally about food! We ate on the patio even though we almost froze. Isn't June supposed to be warm? Write back! Alice

I've been thinking of you lots these days. I hope you are not feeling so deep in the dumps. Everything happens for a reason. And even if it sucks to not be in England, there is some sense to it. Imagine the bill if you would have had to go to the ER in London. That would have sucked worse! It can always be worse. Enjoy the downtime-start a hobbie, relish in the quiet and calm. It'll be good for you! I wish I could be there to watch endless TV. I'd love it! Write sometime! It's something to do. Alice

Happy Summer to ya! I hope you are having some relaxation time! I am loving being home. It's so fun to be with family and friends. It's like I never left! Thanks so much for helping me get those names done in the temple. I have felt many blessings due to that work. It truly was special to share that with you. Thanks for being awesome and worthy and willing to serve! I have always looked up to you and am so glad we are friends. Alice

Happy June! It's one of my three favorite months! I bet you agree. I hope by the time you get this you have had a grand adventure already. Summer really should be filled wiht grand adventures!!!I have been enjoying my time home already. It's been filled with family, friends, and softball. I actually have only been home one night. I stayed with a friend in Wausau(where I grew up) after my late softball game. I really didn't want to do the hour drive at 10pm last night! It was fun to catch up with my high school friend. It's nice to have friends that it's easy to catch up with and it's like you never were apart! I hope that's how we are come August. Write back sometime! Alice

Hey! How's life? I hope you're not stressing too much about summer school! You'll do great! You always do!!! Life is great back home. It's been nice to spend time with family and friends. Played softball last night and won 9-5 in extra innings. I love being back on the field! :) Ate amazing pizza before the game. It's all about the food, right? Staying with a friend in the city I grew up in . Always so many memories as I drive around. Lots of good stuff happened here and I'm glad I get to venture back yearly!. Well have some fun and write me! Alice

Hey Kiddo! How's summer treating you so far? What do you think about that ugly creature on this card? He is said to roam the woods here in Rhinelander! Pretty scary. He's also the mascot for the high school. I'm kinda glad we're the Lions! I'm enjoying being back in Wisconsin. My family is awesome and I am enjoying their company! Next weekend my brother comes and I cannot wait. I haven't seen him in two years! Drop me a line sometime. Alice
