I think Gaspar is a popular name in the Hungarian culture.....maybe that was what she was getting at?

But what do I know?

It's also a popular Mexican name. I've known a few since I moved here. Maybe she'll let us know though?

Yeah, I absolutely LOVE pictures. I even like to go through pictures that were taken years and years ago. I tried to get Rick to look at all my pictures when I first met him but he kept yawning and falling asleep! How can he love me and NOT love my pictures, too!

Those videos from the trip really got to me, though, when I discovered them. Not sure why such little blips of time could tug my heartstrings so much but they do!

Oh my gosh. I'm just absolutely speechless. Just finally catching back up to this thread. Everything was beautiful. The children are so incredibly beautiful. I love the picture where they're holding up the rabbit ears behind each others heads (and I think yours too Susie). What a warm and wonderful feeling you've given me before I set off to bed. I will definitely have Mexico dreams tonight. Can't wait for your next installment.
