That is what we say in German (Einen guten Rutsch ins neue Jahr!) to wish someone a good start in the New Year - have a good slide into it! So we pray that you all have a great slide into a blessed and rewarding new year!
After almost a full day of traveling - we finally arrived in Murrieta, California! Thanks for your prayers as the flights went relatively well. We made all the connections, even with delays because of weather, planes being overloaded, etc. We knew someone was praying for us! It was only hard with the 2 younger ones - Zachie and Dariah. They are just not used to sitting for 11 hours on an airplane, running to the next plane and sitting another 5 hours! Talk about boredom!
But here we are in sunny SoCal. I went for a jog yesterday morning at 8.00 and was able to go out in shorts, T-Shirt and sweatshirt only. Kinda like that - but know I shouldn't get used to it since it's around freezing back in Freiburg!
Anyways, wishing you all a great slide (just don't break anything) into 2008 and that it will be a year where God truly blesses and challenges you and that you grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ!
PS - we had our first Mexican food already - carne asada burritos w/ really hot salsa. With tortilla chips and dip on the side! Thank God for Mexican food! And for Rosa's Cantina!

Ahhhh, Rosa's...we have so many fond memories from that place! We had it a few times while out there. That chicken is so so so good! You'll have to take the kids to Rose's Tortilla Factory too though...they'll enjoy watching the tortilla maker and the sour cream chicken enchiladas are really really good.
Glad to hear you arrived safe and sound. May God bless your time there over and above what you could hope for!
Happy Slippity Sliding New Year to you too!

Hey! Glad to hear you made it safely! I was wondering how Mr. Zach would sit for soooo long. ; )
And you already had Mexican food! I am so jealous!! :(
Have a great time back 'home' but also come back soon.
Liebe Gruesse,

Happy new year!!! :) We can't wait to see you guys at the end of Jan!

I know that wouldn't have been an easy flight but i'm glad you guys all made it safely and will be praying that everyone recovers before trip home! My cough is nearly gone now but Kinya still has bronchial infection pretty bad. Gotta say the german flu is persistent!!i can't help feeling responsible for everyone else getting sick in some way! Anyway, wishing you guys all the best for your time there in the states. Have a soft taco for me!! xx kim
