Look Who Came To Germany!!

The end of April, we had a delightful surprise of Joshua coming to Germany!!!  His first overseas flight after settling into his base back in the states came into Ramstein.  How providential!!  It was so good to see him again and we all enjoyed catching up on some fellowship - we only wished we could have had more time.  Unfortunately, we had reservations in East Germany that night so we had to leave in the early afternoon, but we still had a great time.  Of course we have a few pictures...

Daddy picked Joshua up and brought him over in the morning 

Shenandoah still likes "Bub" just as much as ever! :)


We took a little walk and were able to show him some of our village

A group picture once again - it's hard to believe it had been nearly seven months since we were all in Oklahoma together.  What's even funnier is that the first time we were together again was in Germany!!!

We picked up some subway for lunch and headed to the base park to eat it


It started to rain, but thankfully they had a covered area for us to use!

Shenandoah found her way to "Bub" every chance she got :)

We were so thankful for the time of fellowship and we were very glad Joshua got to come!!!

We're Home!!!

Hello Everyone!!!

I hope everyone's doing great. As you can see by the title, we are home!!! We had such a great time in Germany, made so many great memories and were so thankful to be with daddy for most of his time away, but it sure feels good to be back in the states again!!

Thank you for your prayers for safe travels. We had some adventures, but we're home safe and sound! The families in our church have been such a blessing to us - we are overwhelmed with everything they've done while we were away and also everything to help us get settled back in.

I can't wait to post pictures!! I still have a few more scheduled posts from Europe that will be posting over the next few days and I'm looking forward to finishing posts on the rest of our time in Europe as soon as we get settled in!

Oh! One quick thing - I found the "right" Wish Me Luck As You Wave Me Goodbye song and although I can't upload it (only daddy's computer does video and it's in Germany!) I'm posting the link here - you really ought to check it out!!! :) (click the song title above)

God bless you all!!

P.S. I wanted to correct something from one of my recent posts... Thanks to a family friend pointing it out, I can say that I was mistaken and got Mary Queen of Scots and Bloody Mary mixed up - they weren't the same people, they were cousins!! Just wanted to set that straight!! :)

Tulip Festival - Part Two

Below are the pictures from the flower gardens.  We learned the Keukenhof Gardens is supposedly the most photographed location in the world.  It was very beautiful.  We hope you enjoy the pictures!!!





I thought this was a neat looking tree

















This was a pretty tree too!
















A little river of water...

... and a little river of flowers!
(isn't it neat how they did that?!)
