Europe-Prague style


Visiting Mom and Dad in Prague was easily the highlight of the trip for JJ and I. Here are a few of the happy happenings that happened there.I can't remember the name of this castle ....Mom can you help me out?
Family Home Evening with the folks and the youth. This was an impressive group of kids.This guy, Joe was my buddy. I seem to attract buddies like this one a lot. Hmm...He was a cute little guy-sure liked to eat. (Sounds a lot like the other buddy with me in the picture....)Pure joy.Eating tredernlicks? A little help here Ma?At the market. Pretty fruit! See if you can find JJ's head.

Dad and JJ don't have very good "game faces" when playing cards do they?














We actually bought a picture that was painted from this very spot.Our last night in Prague. They put on quite a show, don't you think?

One last story from Prague.
So saying goodbye to Sister Ma and Elder Pop was a bit harder than I expected. When it was time to say goodbye, the tears started flowing. (You know how when your Mom starts crying, you start crying too? Brutal.)
We got on the train and were waving goodbye to Ma and Pop. We started signing 'I love you' to them. Mom and Dad waved back. And with tears streaming down her face, what did she sign back?

Rock on.
I'll miss you so much! Rock on! So funny, so my mother. Rock on to you too Ma.
I love this picture. It is actually from Denmark but I forgot to include it in the previous post.

Next stop? Austria and Rome

Why is it that when explained your mom and dad crying as you left I got all choked up? She's not my mother...your not my daughter... so why is it so sad? Hummm, but it was. I bet they were so glad to see you and so sad for you to go. Love the, "rock on" Shauna.

And this is Thelissa Posting, not Paul... although I'm guessing he'd get all choked up too!
