Wow!! It is so great to hear from you!! I'm so happy that you're enjoying your time there and I feel you on the entire visiting thing. That would be one cultural norm that I couldn't adopt. : ) I love, love, love, the pics! It really is a beautiful place. As I'm typing, I'm sitting hear thinking of how you and your beautiful family are so blessed and how much I admire you all for doing the things in life you want to do.

Take care and I will continue to check out your blog.
