"O praise the LORD, all ye nations: praise him, all ye people.  For his merciful kindness is great toward us: and the truth of the LORD endureth for ever. Praise ye the LORD."

Psalm 117 

Before Wedding photos

On our way down Monday, we ate dinner at Cafe Pita in Houston (we learned about it on "Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives), a restaurant owned by some Bosnian refugees, for dinner. 

That's my sandwich- a "Turkish Sandwich". I could have had salad, rice or fries with it...next time, don't order fries.  But the sandwich was WONDERFUL! =)

We celebrated Father's Day and even ordered a dessert for all three of us to share.
