The hills are alive with the sounds of the Lewis's.



Hello my fellow readers. Thank you for keeping up with all of my blogs and extended absence. To Ian, Alex, and Grant….I love how you guys call out the fact that I get excited about a girl and usually it ends up not working….Same thing happened again, but I am seriously getting used to it. To Karly and Tiff, love you guys and I know now that I have two more friends for life now, love you guys and you have made it easier to live over here. To Phyllis, I love you and I am really glad I got to talk to you the other day. I pray for a speedy recovery and I lit a candle for you at Joan of Arc Cathedral. Who else is better to light a candle to for strength huh? To everyone else who reads and doesn’t write, I hope you enjoy my words.

I really don't have an answer for my relationships. The best way I can describe them would be like lighting a string of Black Cat fireworks. You are surprised and excited when you light them but before you know it...the show is over.

Enough of that. I am just going to give you a string of pics of Mom, Dad, and Nena being over here. I want everyone to know that we are constantly talking about you guys and wishing you were here. We have had laughs and conversations about certain things everyone would enjoy. So here are some pics. Enjoy. Love you and talk to you soon.

thanks for the update - got to run to court but I will be thinking of smart ass comments for the photos -"string of black cats?" - I was thinking more like one or two - or even those dud bottle rockets that shoot up about 15 feet then just "whisssssssss" out with no pop at the end - anyway - love you all - Al

Tony, isn't it more like lighting a snake, that limply expands?

I did really enjoy the firework thing, it was very clever.

Good pictures! All three of them look good. I am surprized mom let you shoot her, but tell her I think my favorie it her walking down the street towards the Hotel. "Bon apres-midi, Madam" Dad looks good--I really don't know what I was expecting--but he looks good--so does nena.

Hey, I am sending you jake. He wouldn't fit in one box so I am sending him in three--don't worry, I am using dry ice.

Hey guys, looks like you are enjoying yourselves. The pics are really good.

Lisa, Did you know that your car will do 135mph. That's what Ian said anyway.

Bob, How unfortunate that you twisted your ankle. The crutches are a nice touch, should work well with the ladies...

Enjoy your trip, Ian has everything under control here at home...

Hey Ian - Dad is faking the whole thing - remember when we took abuela with us to Disney and since she was in a wheelchair we all (7 of us) zoomed to the front of the lines? We covered a packed and crowded Disney in about 4 hours - smart Dad - sly like a fox - either that or he is going for the sympothy factor - "Oh look at the old special american" "How nice for them to take him out and visit Paris"

Friends for life NOW?!?!? I guess the summer we spent in Nevada, the damn sympathy FIREWORKS display on the 4th, all of the baseball games, and countless nights of not knowing what in the hell you were talking about because the response to every question was either a quote from a movie or a line of a song DIDN'T COUNT!!! Thanks Tony thanks alot... ASS ;-)

Just joking... Glad to see you all are having a blast. What is the plan for this welcome home party? Can't wait to see you!!! -- Karly
