Mother/Daughter Retreat 2009

Brianna and friends, Dove, Anna and Mindy enjoy our walk on the beach on the Black Sea near Şile.

Emirgan Park

Like always, we went to Emirgan Park. It was the last day of the Tulip Festival. We had church and ate lunch at the park. We walked around the park to see the tulips. Other pictures are in the "Family Photo Album."

Austin's Activities

Austin has been joining a soccer club near our house with his friends, Umut and Cengizhan.
He has been going on Sunday and/or Saturday depending on which day we have church. He has been also joining the school's baseball team. Which practices on Saturdays and Wednesdays.

Spring Break

Over the kids' spring break we went to Bolu. Bolu is two-in-a-half hours out of Istanbul. We went to Bolu Termal Otel meaning Bolu Thermal Otel. They had a swimming pool and some thermal baths that we would go to during the day. We stayed at the hotel two nights. For other pictures visit "Family Photo Album".
