Hope Emily had a happy birthday—one she is sure never to forget!  By the way, could somebody please write and tell us about the food?  I bet it is out of this world and hopefully some great recipes will come home with you!

The photographs are outstanding.  All the makings for a wonderful book.

The pictures are such a treasure I did not expect - can’t wait until the next round! Cactus is edible? I had no idea. LIz, you look like the only one who is REALLY taking a big bite out of it smile

Wonderful pictures.  It is great to see everyone smiling and being intent on the subject at hand.  Thanks for keeping us parents aware of what our kids are up to with the pictures.

Excellent pictures!! Such great variety! You really capture the many sides of your trip, from eating (we notice that you put Bryan right in front when it comes to eating…..I guess he’s usually first in line the way his Dad always is) to the Stations of the Cross….and more. I will bet none of you can believe how MUCH you have done in such a short time.
God bless you all.
