Two Short Years ago Today...

I looked out a plane window with tears in my eyes.

I stepped foot in a country that would forever have my heart.

I had butterflies in my stomach and was more nervous than I have ever been.

I watched the clock on my ipod slowly tick the wee hours of the morning away.

I jumped in a van and dizzily watched this new land pass by.

I walked in a courtyard, squeezing my best friend's hand as tight as I could.

I looked up....I saw you.

Love you so much Yonatan.  Thank you for turning my world upside down.

Its a Snow (wait, Freezing Rain) Day...

Yay for Snow days!!! Today we finally had the time to just go out and play. The boys and I started out in the back yard.  We were amazed at how hard the snow was (our huge snow fall ended up being a lot of freezing rain on top of old snow...yippee). Yonni wasn't heavy enough to make footprints and Elijah only made prints if he jumped.  E tried his "snowboard" out on our tiny hill, while Y stuck with the red bullet.

Soon we decided that this was just not exciting enough, so we walked over to Mr. Joel's hill for some more fun...

After that, we decided to "hike" through the woods behind Mr. Joel's house and ended up at the church to see if Daddy was there. After making it to the soccer field opening, the boys were "exhausted". E said they had to stop and rest!
