Sometimes its the simplest things that make us smile the most. :) Its a hard thing to be so far apart, but we are always finding ways to just make us feel each other that bit closer, however we can. For Valentine’s Day I slipped these three little hearts into the mailer with the cards I sent to Alison. I had kept three just like it here too and soon they will be reunited and we may have a lot of little hearts runnign all aorund then! LOL well by littel ones i mean more hearts of some form, I think the days of little Garazons and Candyflosses are near passed, but the days of giving these little treasures have just begun! :)

Now how is this for being in tune, well I set mine up here on the desk and though they are not in the same order as to whats written on them, they are pretty much situated in the same pattern!

I love you baby XXXXX

Well I keep meaning to make a list of the things I need to have for my trip coming up in October, and haven’t done one yet… well that’s not true.. I made a short one a couple of weeks ago, but guess what? Can’t remember where I saved it on the pc! lol So I think I will be better off to make one here where I know I will see it often. ;) and of course anyone feel free to add something they think I might have missed… ok for the ladies out there keep in mind guys really aren’t in to packing a complete wardrobe for entire season so the clothing list will be right short! lol See guys think more on the lines of their toys… cameras, video recorders, cables, memory cards .. that sort of thing.. if we need something to wear we go find a Dollar store or a Walmart! lol Hope they have something similar in Cyprus!

:) YEA!!! I booked my flight today to go visit Alison! I will arrive on 9 October in Paphos at 7:40 pm! I am so happy that we have set a date to see each other again! I will be there until the 19th when my flight departs. Already I am dreading to say goodbye to my love again, but I know in my heart that our day is coming when we will never have to part!

I look forward to meeting everyone, I feel I know most of you so well through all of Alison’s mails, and seeing your photos. I am so excited also to see as much of the beauty of the island as is seen in all the pictures Alison has shown me.. Well I will see you soon! And we also have a countdown script running on the top right, so you can count the days down with us!
love to you all and kisses to my Alison Michelle! XXXX

Thank you all who have sent such beautiful cards of congratulations for our engagement! :)
It really is so special to receive these wishes of happiness. Although we are separated by an ocean we are able to both enjoy them by this wonderful medium of the world wide web. So since we have them online for Alison and I to share, we thought we would share them with all of you as well! They are in our gallery here. http://picasaweb.google.com/alison.markides/Engagement_cards Thank you all so very much for your love and support. It does make us so happy to get so many nice mails and cards and thee comments to our posts. It may have been strange to some at first that we should have found each other online, but I think now everyone can see that it doesnt matter how we met, just that we did meet, and the love we share can only be heavensent! Thank God for email and the internet! :) And tahnk God for friends and family!
love to all, xxx
Alison & Chester

Gretchen has always had this thing about calendars. She had all the family and friends birthdays listed and marked, wedding anniversaries, anniversaries of deaths, Dr's appts, work schedules..etc.. And she also used them to keep track of "special events" school events for the kids and grandkids (like she would forget those? )
