Pics By Alysa

Alysa has decided she likes photography! She's starting out by taking pictures of still life (plants, in this case) and she likes taking pictures of her friends and family. I am going to encourage her to develop this talent...you never know where her "work" could end up!!

Perry News

I'm sorry to say I don't have any new pictures. But there some of you who want updates on Perry. He is currently in Iraq, although we are not allowed to know the specific location. He assures me everything is fine and not to worry (knowing all the while that I'm likely to do it anyway). He says the food is the best he's ever eaten anywhere. Funny, that is one of the things all mothers want to make sure of...that their baby is eating well. Some info about where he's living....the building use to be a resort, but the walls are now covered in bullet holes, no indoor plumbing (that's in a separate building) and they've rigged the door to close with a rope and bag of water because there were no workable hinges. He had his guitar shipped over and I sent him "Cranium", a board game to play in whatever spare time he might have. He promises he's going to call and email more often, as soon as they get some things squared away. They're apparently very busy at first. Overall, he sounds good and welcomes mail, goody boxes, prayers, your love, any correspondence at all. I do believe he is becoming more aware of just how blessed we are here in the promised land. Keep praying!
