We have arrived!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



I am just having some fun with some old pictures that I just downloaded.  Here is a blast from the past with John and Nancy in Oliver about 12 years ago.  It led into a song fest here in the room with John and my brother, Jim, singing - Who will buy this beautiful Morning?  We found ourselves in a small close space of a room in Ramada in the town that has been in the news a lot lately - Penn State.  Enough said about that!  The trip went well, and the computer is in demand, so I will probably be adding another fun picture and calling this quits!

This was taken at Sam's baptism at the Bascilica - John was just a few months old!   This reminds me of something I wanted to blog about this morning.  Just as we were getting ready to leave this morning for our second day of travel - we were discussing that the Gospel today was about Jesus telling us that marriage is for keeps!  We were talking about marriage - Pat was not in the room and Jim was saying..."You love Pat, Barbie.  You love the idea of Pat."  That is so true!  When I think about the wonders of Pat... His love of the Church and always his openness to LIFE no matter what.  Those ideals are what we live our life and marriage is based on and built on that ROCK!  I do love the idea of Pat and the ideal that underlies all that we are... then you can put up with the small annoyances that come with those that live the closest to us!  I am getting browbeat to let Pat use the computer, so I need to say this - Jesus,we trust in you.  Bless-bless, Barb
