We are making our way back to Paris to fly out Sunday...I still can't believe our time here is coming to an end.
We stopped in some towns along the way that have Castles! Vianden, Luxembourg and Bouillon, Belgium. The other day Sadie said, "Daddy, I am going to have a big party and you are going to dance with me, ok?" It was very funny to see her reaction when we came across a castle.
We are in Trier, Germany for a company meeting and are thankful for being able to visit friends one last time before heading to Houston. Unfortunately, I did not get very many photos of everyone.
In Trier there is ancient ruins from the Roman, its crazy that they were able to get so far north, the Roman Empire was huge.
my memory of the day...sometimes when you read foreign languages out loud they can sound like english words. Germans...
This was our lovely car...we are proud of her! She made the whole 2 years, she scared us a few times but it was always ok.
This wasn't today but some good memories I want to have from last week.
This was our direct neighbor across the hall, Daria. She was too sweet to us and in the photo below is our upstairs neighbor, Chloe.
Today we officially leave Corsica. We head to Paris for a night and then get to drive across France & Luxembourg to Trier, Germany for a week long company meeting before heading to Houston. Bittersweet. Corte has taught us many things as a family, many trials and blessings. 1/2 of our marriage has been spent here an 1/2 of Sadie's life. I wonder if she will remember any of it. We welcomed a son into our family, Sadie attended school when she didn't even know the language, Corsica gave me a best friend for life, we fell in love with it's beauty, and welcomed its individuality. What I love the most is that it taught me the simplicity of Life, teaching me how to free up most of my time spent on un-needed things and which enables me to focus more of what the Lord has for me for Each day. The present day. I saw God in His creation and the beauty of His power. Sometimes its seems like a quick 2 years, other times it seems like the end would never come. We learned and lived. We tried and grew in our experience. We have had our eyes opened a little bit wider. I believer that wisdom comes from trails and experience...hopefully maturity will start to surface now. Being rather secluded and alone, our experience forced us to depend on something other then ourselves and man, and it strengthen our faith, it forced me from a introvert to a extrovert and gave us relationships that taught us more then we are even aware of right now. Our time in Corsica, most importantly has given me a Bible that has not seen such wear and tear. Tired and True.We are ready for the next adventure God takes us on...shaken but not empty. Stronger together.
our beloved town for the past 2 years.....
