Richard, Welcome to Romania!

My brother came to visit earlier this month for a two-week stay. Together we explored Bucharest, traveled to Rome and relaxed in a mountain town called Brasov. I was so eager to show him our life here in Romania taking him to the Ruth School, church and to various spots we have come to love. In the midst of all things Romania we set off for a 4 day trip to Rome. Oti was also traveling through Rome while we were there. It was really nice to meet him for lunch and coffee. After 12 days and over 800 pictures later it was time for Richard to return to Texas. We had such a fantastic time I don't even think there are words I could write to express it. Ask Richard, Wes or myself if you want more details. Here are a few pics from our trip.
