Slackers!

O.K. so we started well but this week has been a bit thin on the posting front! We sincerely apologise for the delay in your daily dose of John and Leia.

It has been a hectic week and I wish I could report that next week will be better but so far, our days are fully booked all through until Thursday already! It's stressful and tiring just thinking about it. However, John and I have scheduled some time out too so hopefully we'll have time for this big long deep breath we desperately need to continue!

My birthday was lovely and I was thoroughly spoilt by my sweet man ...(all the girls may sigh dreamily along with me here, while the guys make fun of him..but only a bit!) I was taken shopping and this time I actually had permission and cash to buy 2 PAIRS OF SHOES!!!! In the evening, we went to a cool gothic-with-a-modern-twist-style restaurant which had the most amazing food...as you see, we're using this blog to try and tempt all our friends and family to come visit! Needless to say, it was a very special day mostly because of who I got to spend it with. ok...enough with the sappy moments...

Yesterday, we had our youth meeting and the second lesson of our series this month about the truth and relevance of the bible. It went really well and the kids are beginning to look at the bible in a completely different way. We were both very excited when we came home.

Today, we were supposed to see a car but it didn't quite work out. There's a saying in Greek 'Every obstruction is always for the best' and even though it's disappointing to not be getting a car as soon as we would like, I'm sure there is a better option just around the corner. We ended up going to Limassol instead to buy some material for the wedding and visiting my Grandmother. We all went out for lunch to this great little local Taverna and had real genuine Gyros....hmmmmmm! (tempting isn't it?)

Tonight we are going to just chill because tomorrow we have another fairly busy day. :(
Hopefully, we will find time to update and fill you in on our next eating adventures seeing as that's what we mostly do here in Cyprus!

Once again, thanks for all your emails, comments, wishes and texts on Thursday. I felt very loved and special. (Somebody write something warm and fuzzy for John too so he doesn't feel left out!)

Miss you all a bunch
Leia

Here's something warm and fuzzy for John. *hands over a nice snuggly fleece pullover* Good to hear you're doing well amidst all the stress. Now John knows how I felt when I was getting married. :-) Two people working full time with an international move and a wedding to plan is a recipe for being busy with a side order of stress. But it's fun. And it's over quickly. :-) Looking forward to seeing you guys in June!
