Mira the extrovert

Mira met everybody at church today and hardly raised a fuss even though she was awake for quite a long time.

Mira’s first days

Here are some more pictures of Mira, from the hospital to coming home. Sorry it took so long to get them up, my hands have been a little full… 🙂      

Through the windows

A few views from our apartment, mostly while it was snowing. Unfortunately you could see the snow best in front of the not-so-aesthetically-pleasing buildings, and I was locked in battle with a terrible cold monster (*sniffle*), so I didn’t go outside to find a better spot.

There were a lot of very cool sounding things on the schedule that we didn’t get to see, but we enjoyed it nonetheless. Glad we went on Saturday though because it was rainy and cold on Sunday (even though our neighbor… Continue reading Celebrating culture

Church History

Today we got to enjoy going around the town of Chester, England, which is well over a thousand years old. We were able to walk most of the way around the old town walls and saw a rather unimpressive Roman amphitheater and two churches that were close to 1500 years old. In one of these… Continue reading Church History
