Snow!

It snowed in Kittanning, PA this week! Gotta love it!
This is the first time Nafisa has played in snow and will be able to remember it!
Snow and Maple Syrup!

From the Last Week




Below are pictures from our recent trip to Florida which closed out our family travels in the US. We visited Merrilea's brother Harold and his family (previous blog entry) and my brother Bob and his family. We even were able to Disney with them, thanks to FBC Orlando who paid our way! THANKS!!!!



This is fulfilling one of Nafisa's wishes...a picture with the princess! Eventually we should have others to show you of this.

Peter...just hanging out with us. He really enjoyed hanging out with Joseph!
John from FBC Orlando, met us at Disney to pay our way! THANKS JOHN! He had come to our meetings in Thailand this summer and led Danielle's class.

Nafisa at FBC Orlando with her teacher who headed up child-care for kids her age this summer at our meetings in Thailand. At Disney!


Finally Nafisa gets someone to play with!

Going from Epcot to one of the other parks.




Everyone say "Hair Envy!"

At Disney Village with Lego people!


Bob and I .... I still have more hair!

Adventuresome Cousins!


This is outside the Tower of Terror...one of the best rides at Disney.

While I'm driving, there's always some wrestling going on in the back seat...

Here's a pick I found from Maria's camera of our October trip to VA.
Our first few days in Florida were with Merrilea's brother Harold and his family (See previous blog update). Maria had some great pics of Harold doing what he likes best! Thanks for a great time with you and your family, Harold and Suzy! It was great.
While Merrilea and I were in Colorado this week (see next update for pics from that), Merrilea's parents took our kids to the Carnegie Science Center which they love!

SC, GA and FL

With the Schrack family at the beach in Cocoa, FL!
Maria and Nafisa near a cotton field in southern Georgia while we were enroute to Cocoa, FL.

These pics are out of order...but I wanted them to get uploaded before too much time goes by between them and our travels!

The following 3 pics are sweet reunions with college friends from our Liberty University days! It was great seeing you Rod, Kev and Traci! Memories to take back to India with us!



Merrilea and Traci in Florida after so many years. They used to live and work together in Turkana, Kenya back in 1989/90!

This one was a week or more ago...at the Beacon restaurant in Spartanburg! Thanks for taking us, Ross!

Nafisa's first Trick-or-Treating!

In Greenville, SC with new friends! Thanks Katie and Matt! We'll not forget you!




We had a great chance to check out North Greenville Univ. with Maria and Joseph!

Danielle's 12th B day on Halloween!



At Fudruckers with Friends!
At Cocoa Beach, FL with cousins!

And the difference between the above and below pic is what?

This is a great shot of Lilly taken by her mom, Suzy! I had to include it as it was such a GREAT pic!
