Our Weekend Retreat in Holland's North Province
Aisha had arranged an amazing escape on a winery, and we stayed in log cabins which had been pre-fabricated in, of all places, Siberia! They were gorgeous and super comfortable. Check them out! quite impressive- they were completed the day we arrived, so we were the very first guests!
Kathleen Zara arrived into this world on July 30, 07. Matt, Mary Rose (Matt's 16 year old sister)and I were all in Ft. Leavenworth Kansas waiting for her at St John's Hospital. Along with Zara's birth mother Chrissie and half brother Devonte, we enjoyed ourselves; getting to know each other better! Chrissie's labor was about 10 hours long and suddenly Zara was here! A few hectic & thrilling days later, on August 5th, Zara boarded her first plane home to Washington DC with her mommy and daddy! Chrissie is in Cuba with the US Army and Devonte is on base with his grandmother, Penny, in Kansas waiting for her return. We speak often and we are forever thankful to each other.
