The Starbucks Experience


We stopped into Starbucks while walking around People's Square. There aren't any coffee places here that come close to good coffee outside of Starbucks.

Thanks Nantmeal

Nantmeal,

Thanks so much for the gifts! Lilia loves the doll so much. She already kisses, hugs and carries it around with her. Marilyn wasn't able to bring everything, but we are so appreciate of your thoughtfulness and generousity!!!

Our morning


As we were walking back from exploring a man gave Lilia the leash to his dog. The dog was walking around the man in circles and Lilia was following around with the leash in hand. It was really cute.

Lilia & Aunt Karen, the hat's from Aunt Julie, thanks!

Shout Out to WCU

Hey WCU friends,
Thanks SO MUCH! You guys are way to generous to us. Thanks for the Phillies stuff for Dave, the sweater for Katie, Lilia's books, and the candy/food. We are really appreciative of everything!!!
It was like Christmas all over again! Thanks again.
We think about you all often.

They're Here!

Our family made it!!! It was so good to see them face to face, to hug and see them smile. It was great to see that Lilia didn't skip a beat in going to them and staying in their arms. She even fell asleep in Aunt Karen's arms on the ride home from the airport.
Karen is already itching to pamper herself with massages, hair washings and shopping. After all, she's on vacation. And I don't blame her. It's so cheap here, why wouldn't you!
