December




We have had a wonderful start to our December with travels to Dusseldorf, Cologne, and Black Forest, Germany. It was a fun trip and we scored some amazing gifts for our kids. Then we hit the Italian market the next weekend we got home from Germany. See the pictures. 








We are enjoying our adventures in Italy- Next week we are off to see the Christmas lights of Sorrento.

Ciao!

Here's one to make you smile

Love comes in all sizes....



Your Friends will support you....



And respect your creativity
for thinking outside the box....



They'll be there when you need a
shoulder to lean on....




Or a great big hug....



A true friend takes interest in
understanding what you're all about....




They see beyond the black and white
to discover your true colors....



And accept you just the way you are...
Even when you just wake up in the morning



So make your own kind of music....



Follow your heart wherever it takes you....




And when someone reaches out to you,
Don't be afraid to love them back....




They may just be a friend for life....




Practice patience and tolerance.....













Good friends are hard to find, harder to leave....
And impossible to forget!

He started as a Freshman at Dalat International School, Penang, Malaysia and then went to Morrison Academy his Sophomore year as a boarding student.

Prayer for our Troops


Suicide Bomber
It has been a very stressful week. We lost 3 men who loved their country and served it well. They were men who had wives and children. Men who worked hard and lead with valor. Men of Character ~ This week we lost the best of the best! Praying for our Troops and for my sweet husband who is serving alongside them. To the Griffin, Kennedy and Gray families we thank you for your service to our country for your great sacrifice. You are all in our thoughts and prayers as you lay to rest your loved ones. Thankful that we had the chance to know them! Blessings

Little ones

We have a few little ones running around our neighborhood. It's fun to see these little ones playing in the back yard and getting curious about things.
