World Travelers.....

Those are two words that describe our kids these days!!! I am so amazed at the incredible opportunities our kids have had to see the world. My only wish is that I could go with them on their adventures!!!


Right now this is the view that A has!! That's right!! He's in Paris! He left Sunday for Spain to visit his girlfriend CB (who has been studying there all semester). They spent a few days in Spain and then flew to Paris for a few days. They will then head back to Spain, pack up CB's things and come home together! I LOVED Paris when we were there a few years ago and hope to go back someday.











K and her fiance are in the Middle East on a group trip. I got an email from her today and they actually floated in the Dead Sea today. It's hard for me to even wrap my mind around the amazing things that they are seeing and experiencing. I'm hoping they are taking LOTS of pictures. I've asked her to do a guest blog post when she comes home!!



In just a few short weeks, R and M will take off for the summer in Africa!! They are going with Africa Inland Mission as team leaders to work in an orphanage to relieve the regular orphanage workers for awhile. M has been there a couple of times before and is excited to share her love of the country and the people with R. Again, I so wish I was going with, but will be happy to live vicariously through their experiences.



Steve and I do have a trip to Wisconsin planned for mid-July which is pretty exciting. Won't need our passports, however....


Not much new on the knitting or baking front. I have my garden in and have been busy working on computer projects. I hope to sneak some knitting and cooking time over the weekend, so hopefully will have more to share next week.

Until Next Time....

They really are world travelers! How great for them! Wisconsin is as exotic as we're going to get, too! I think they all need to do a guest blog post when they come home!

Your kids are very lucky to be able to travel in different parts of the world. Safe travels to them.
Wisconsin will be nice in Mid-July. It's usually when we take our weeks vacation "Up North". What part will you be visiting?

You are so right about kids having so many great opportunities these days. My daughter spent 3 weeks in Italy a year or so ago, and I was so jealous.

Travel... Ahhhhhhh
it does a body good.

I LOVE the last picture with M and the kids... the sun filtering through is just the perfect touch...

It is wonderful that they are traveling. It would be great if they could do a guest post. I have a passport that I've never had a chance to use. I would not be surprised if one day we will need it across state lines. Sure beats a drivers license.
