Giving Thanks for Those We Hold So Dear
Today I am just so grateful for my family. Thanksgiving is behind us and we are on to Christmas. This Thanksgiving was a challenge. I don't want to go into detail as to why, but let me just say that I am so blessed with a wonderful husband, two precious daughters who could not be more perfect in the eyes of their parents, an amazing father and grace mother and an amazing mother and grace father. I know without a shadow of a doubt that I am loved by these amazing people and they know that I love them. It is so very important to convey our love and thanks to those we hold near and dear to us. We can never assume that they know this. We often take those closest to us for granted and this is so very unfortunate, but I do believe the last 5 days that we've endured serve as a reminder to NEVER to take those precious people in my life for granted. To my family, I LOVE YOU. Never, ever question that! :-)

Germany/Paris 2011
So, we had a wonderful trip to Germany and France this summer! Most of our time was in Germany where we reconnected with Mike's extended family. We had such an amazing time there and the weather was PERFECT! It was a great reprieve from our hot weather in Arkansas. The girls loved Germany and they loved getting to meet their German relatives, Oma, Margarete, Klaus, Michael, Tanya, Max,Thomas, Ilse, Manfred, Susanna, Martin, Martina, and Marius. We also spent 4 days in Paris and experienced all of the sights, sounds and food there. My cousin, Eric, and his girlfriend, Donna, live in Paris and we had such a wonderful evening with them at their apartment. This was the best trip EVER. The girls are now world travelers for certain! I've had a difficult time getting pictures to load so I'm going to try again. Sorry if they come in different posts. Hope you enjoy.
Love,
Monica
