Our Trip... 'En Suisse' ( to be continued..)

We're home from a trip to Switzerland! It was a lovely time and we are VERY glad we went. It felt SO good to be there - lots of old memories there and we made a few new ones too!;)
We got there on a Friday evening and then went to their French convention for the next four days. (Yes, we were nuts..) Jet-leg and all. It was really nice - met some new people, and it was fun to see some that I'd known before only now with husbands/wives/kids!! (We had someone translating the french speakers into earphones for us so we could understand.)

Here are some pics of conv. The first two are of the house on the grounds. I wish I took some of the tents and of the folks there too..

Rachel, a young Sister labouring in Hungary handed out popsicles to all the wee fry on a scorching day..!


Sis Julie taking her girls for a walk.

The kid's spot!
This is were my mom grew up - and were my grandma still lives. It's right across the street from the conv.!

The village school is on the right. Same school 'Mumsy' went to.
Out for a walk through the village to tire out the kids..


The old church.
