My Pilot

Our friends Tim and Andrea went with us to Heidelberg to take an engagement photo. You can see the castle and bridge in the background. We beat the rain and then had the best potatoe in Germany while cooking our own meat on hot stones!



I went on a medical missions trip to Poland. We passed this train car, it was the last one to cross the border before the wall fell. It is in remembrance of how Germany was once separated.



This is the mission in Poland, a beautiful place. I was able to help care for peoples physical pains as well as emotional and spiritual pains. I loved the people and hope to get back soon. I also loved the food, peerogis are stupendous!



DJ met us out at the Kaiserslautern Fest. They are so funny together!



Captain Eddie Ballew! I was able to pin Eddie...from 1Lt to Cpt! He loves the C-21 and just made Instructor Pilot!!!




I was able to get on Eddie's plane on a trip to Rota, Spain. He is a great pilot! I took time on the beach while he flew. I learned how to drive a manual shift car and got pulled over by the Spanish police. It's a great story, I'll have to tell you about it sometime! I took two cadets to the rock of Gibralter and there are so many monkeys out there! It is the tip of Europe, and you can see Africa from the top, very beautiful!



I took some pictures while Eddie was flying. We passed by some thunderheads but missed the storm on our way home. I got an aerial shot of Germany, you can see the little villages with their white homes and red roofs!




My next post will have wedding pictures! I leave on Tuesday for Colorado and I can not wait! It has been a whirl wind of emotions, and I never knew I could feel so much love for someone! I feel so blessed and look forward to each new day. See some of you in a couple days! God bless!
