January 27, 2008 - Our ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY!




It's Sunday the 27th, 2008! Gabrielle went to school and Rolando to work. The school/work weeks here are Sundays through Thursdays with Fridays and Saturdays as the weekends. We have spent the past weekend talking to the kids about a year ago, have shown them some pictures from the past so they could see how big they have gotten in one year, and reminised about our long journey here, again, with our fellow-travelers. Having said this, we would like to send a special "Hola" to our friends Frank and Maria who have already returned to Texas. We miss you and think of you often. Thanks for everything you did for us! And last but not least, to celebrate in true Doha style, we returned to the Retaj Residence tonight for a visit. The guys that work there remembered us the minute we walked in. One of them even remembered Nick by name. It is always nice to remember where you came from so you'll be grateful for where you are, and as always, look forward with excitement to what is yet to come!!
