Christmas 08

It is wonderful to be in Prague with my family:) Jason and Megan traveled here this year as well and we are all staying together in my parents' apartment.
Martin and Alice joined us for Christmas. We had a wonderful (mostly traditional) meal!
We've enjoyed walking around Prague together--revisiting favorite places and discovering some new ones as well.


Cute Niece!!

For Christmas, we gave my parents one of those digital picture frames and my sister sent along a CD of pictures. There were many I hadn't seen and I really think my niece is the cutest thing, so I'm sharing:) Hope they bring a smile to your face too!

Jenni's Visit

It was wonderful to have Jenni visit me on this side of the ocean:)
She spent a day with me at BCA and then we spent the rest of her time here doing other things.

We joined the Mather family and some BCA students for Thanksgiving.


The following morning we went to buy tickets, and were faced with a packed train station (more details in a previous post...)

We finally made it to Brasov, one of my favorite cities in Romania and enjoyed some time walking around this historic city and eating dinner at Bella Musica before ending up at our 'hotel' for the night.
Then on our way back to Bucharest, we stopped in Sinaia. It was a beautiful, snowy day! We tromped through the snow to Peles and then toured Pelesior. We were very thankful to get on a warm train headed to Bucharest.


We braved the crowds for the Unirii Day parade, but soon decided to leave since we couldn't really see anything. We passed an additional 1,000+ people headed toward the parade.




Lots of fun memories to hold on to and some pictures too:)

This is just part of the Christmas concert I attended last weekend.



Tagged-take 2

Here are the rules: Go to 'My Pictures' folder, open the 5th folder and the 5th picture. Post it and tag 5 others.


It was fun to pull up this picture again and be reminded of the fun memories of this summer ('07). It's hard to to believe how much Seth changed in just a year:)

And to think what he'll look like this coming summer when I get to see him again:)

I tag Jennifer at Everlaughter Life, Laura at winter adventures, and Whitney at Whit and the Brit. (I'm not following rules and only tagging 3 people...)
