Daniel's Return is very soon!!!

Daniel is coming home soon and I can't believe it. Soon we will be celebrating the holidays with family and friends. We are both eager to see everyone!

Thank you so much for your love and prayers. His team had a very successful time while they were deployed to Fallujah.

I will post more details on Homecoming soon.

Much Love!!!

It Really Happened...

I know I have been terrible with keeping up with this page. I do know that I have neglected to share some wonderful pictures and stories with you all about Daniel and my year apart. Thank the Lord is it coming to an end and Daniel is still safe and healthy. Thank you for your prayers and support. They have been heard by the Lord and appreciated by us.

We really did meet up in New Zealand and it was a wonderful time. I have been bad about posting these pictures for multiple reasons. When I first got back, thinking about our time together was hard. I just wanted to be with him. I didn't like looking through them and remembering just seeing with him. Thankfully that time has passed because he will soon be home. I can look forward to him being here with me. I love seeing all the places we were so blessed to see and experience.


I am not going to write as much commentary. I will mostly post pictures.

We spent the first few days in Wellington, the capital city, and then took a ferry to the South Island where we spent a week touring the island by train. It is an amazingly beautiful country and being there in the winter made it even more special...all the mountains we snow-capped.

We then spent a few days in Nelson, a city on the north part of the South Island before we returned to Wellington to fly out. We stayed in several hotels and traveled by several different modes of transportation. Daniel loved that part. It was a true adventure and such a joy to have Daniel by my side the entire time. We were spoiled rotten!

Enjoy!


First Day together!



So happy together!






Blustery Wellington Day.













Loving the sheep, even the fake ones!


















To see more please click on my flickr page on the top left. Blogger was taking entirely too long to upload all the pictures and I wanted to share several. Let me know if there is a problem with uploading the link. I plan on using flickr more often now.

Love ya'll.

Pictures of Daniel

Daniel and his team. These were taken in the first month they were there so the picture is now about 3 months old. I am sorry I am just posting these.

This is Daniel and a friend of ours. We met Rob (right) and his wife Stephanie through Jo and Jeremy in Hawaii. They knew this couple and got us connected long distance. Rob ended up deploying a month after Daniel and his office is a short distance away from Daniel's on the same base. What a great blessing to have that familiar face nearby!

I will try to get Daniel to send more photos. I know I enjoy seeing images of the world he is living in right now. I know you all would enjoy it as well.

Daniel's Team Webpage

Check out the webpage that a team member of Daniel's made. It is going to be all about the MiTT and it already has several pictures up and a few videos. I am looking forward to keeping up with it.
