In & Out

Here is small glance into the Lopez Life in Lupburg.

Come inside ... our door is the one on the right.


Upon entering and descending eight stairs, this is your first view of our main living area ...


a quick glance around the corner from the blue chair and behold, our dining area ... site of family feasts.


And through that door ... our kitchen (I miss our spacious Hawaiian one!).


The theme of our house is stairs, stairs, stairs!  We have four different levels and no need for a gym membership!  

And now for just a few highlights of life in

LUPBURG


Along the main road through the village ...

 
you will find the Backerei,


our convenience store, the nah & gut,


and this fun restaurant.


With the arrival of spring, I am sure that the explorations of and around our village will increase.  And soon this will become Home away from home.

Belle

Most of the house is quiet, save the unique sounds coming from the dishwasher. It's just Belle and me ... up for one last feeding of the night. Here we sit at the computer, and I'm wondering why I am sitting here and NOT putting her to bed so that I can grab some precious hours of sleep. Then I remember that these are the moments that it's just Belle and me ... no one is asking to hold her and no one else needs my immediate attention. And this is the face that makes me prolong these moments ...






Belle ... another blessing from our Heavenly Father
