Desert Olives

Omi and Opa

We had the treat of a 2 week visit from Omi and Opa in November.  We were amazed at their ability to go from Bedouin tent visit in the East to chatting with refugee friends over coffee to sleeping in a cold house in a rural village to snorkeling in the sea at a nice hotel in the South.  All along the way, they shared their gifts and presence with those they met and filled our home with warmth and love.  Omi played countless games with a thrilled Caleb and Opa sat and made art with a happy Evan.  It was so nice to wake up to their presence.  We got to share some traditions like making a full Thanksgiving dinner to share with friends and egg nog and Christmas decorating.  Thank you for being with us Omi and Opa!
