Our Trip to Turkey


After the New Year, our family took a trip to Turkey for a conference and a little rest. We enjoyed seeing old friends, meeting new ones, and putting our feet in the chilly Mediterranean Sea. Pictured is our visit to the Spice Bazaar in Istanbul. It was a beautiful city and a special time together as a family.



What fun we had ice skating in a small rink outside of IKEA. We also enjoyed eating at Popeye's chicken, Pizza Hut, KFC, and Burger King while in Istanbul. Oh, and don't forget the coffee from Starbuck's!

mall on the European continent. This was a huge treat for
us because our country doesn't have malls.
Walk slow, Benjamin and don't drop that bag of chips!

Oh! It looks like a fun place to visit! Did you meet the Connell family? Their son, Baxter, was in my class. As usual, all of you look so great! Hope you're having a great week!

Love y'all!

Looking good my friends! We were in Prague over the holidays and thought how much closer we were to you - but still oh so far away!
Much love!
