Wow

So you worked hard, you try to find something you enjoy and BAM someone just thinks they can steal your stuff - well obviously they can!

Tues morning someone stole our Travel Trailer from the storage unit. Just makes me very sad that people can just take things that are not theirs! We love to camp and now we're stuck! I hope this person is miserable!

I think I have my traveling feet back in the states now - meaning I'm back on our time frame finally!!! I miss Italy and everyone but so glad to be where I can understand the language lol. We had a wonderful time and saw lots of great things and had a marvelous time with Shaun, Misti, Kenzi and Peyton. Can't wait for them to get here in October!

Chase has an apt in Tyler! Moves in 8/1 Candace is loving her house in Tyler - why they can't live together - who knows lolol.

Enjoying the summer - being lazy, cleaning house, swimming, reading - aaahhhh I love having my summers off! Summer II starts 7/13...uugghh but I only have 7 classes to go!!!!! Wow! That is hard to believe!

We leave for Rome tonight at 9:00 and take an overnight train. We will be there until Thursday!

It is beautiful here!!!

Can't wait to get back to the states to go to church!!! Can't understand the Italian catholic church here lolol

Ciao!

Friends!!!!

Mark, Robert and Gary
Keith, Carol and Gary
We went to Mark Manley's house for a Samuell get together and we had a great time! There were quite a few people there and it was so much fun hearing about kids and grandkids!!!

We went to a graduation Saturday morning, then our great-niece's b-day party, then Mark's party all in one day! It was a great day of seeing family and friends!

The weather is cool and wonderful today. Thank you God for the Texas weather.

24 Wonderful Years

24 years ago!!!

Today is our 24th anniversary!!! When people ask how long we've been married and we tell them, most of the time the response is wow - 24 years. You know, when you get married life is great, everything is wonderful and beautiful. Marriage is not always wonderful and beautiful but God helps us through everyone hill and mountain we experience! I pray we have 24 more years at least together!!! Our children deserve to see a marriage that is strong and loving and a legacy for them.

Happy Anniversary honey!!!

Swine Flu Swine Flu

OMG OMG OMG!!!!

What in the world is going on? Did the government need a deturant from their problems so now we cancel everything for the swine flu?

Rockwall ISD has cancelled all field trips which entails our yearly trip to San Antonio for an overnight trip with 200 children. What a nightmare trying to get their money back.

This just all doesn't make sense. We have hundreds out of school in February and no on cancelled school but we have 1 or 2 out and bam! Schools close for a week.

Can someone please make sense of this for all of those involved? We do not understand how a couple of cases of a flu we don't know a whole lot about can cause such havic when our normal flu season kills thousands of people a year and now one gets all excited about that!

Just take normal precautions and be safe.

Gary is home from Italy and I am counting down the days - one month from today and we'll be in Italy!!!! I cannot wait!!!

~Blessings~

Italy

Gary made it to Italy and is doing an awesome job taking pictures and sending them our way! Our G-babies are sooooo cute!!!! I'm so jealous he's there but our time is coming soon! They are having a blast. Shaun is playing soccer so they've been to 2 games so far. Kenzi turns 2 this weekend so hopefully a partay!!

Take time to enjoy the beautiful Spring weather God is giving us!!!

~Blessings~
