So I had a pen-pal in Norway, ok so maybe it was not a real kind of pen-pal but hey I got a post card.
This postcard was from my awesome friend and sister-in-Christ Jeri!!
She wrote me and I did not even knew she got my address!
So I went to check my mail because Mrs. N told me to just check
and there it was sitting among the bills and junk!
:)
Boy did that make my day,
I was so happy I had a few tears in my eyes.
Lets say the day was not going to well so it was a pick me upper!
To think this wonderful girl is on vacation in Norway for about a month and she says hey I will write and send Heather (me) a postcard!
I am Loved !!!!
Kirk and Jeri
This lady was gone for about a month and it made me sad : (
but I was able to Skype with her (thanks to Kirk)
when I went over on Sundays to visit with the family!
She also brought back a few things and she even brought me something too!

I looked up the currency because I have never thought about the difference in our money towards another country ... it's quite interesting !
Thanks Jeri for thinking of me... Now when I travel to Korea and Japan I will also think of you!! he-he and bring you back a special gift!!
Well anyways I am glad she had fun, but I am also WAY MORE GLAD to have her back home!!! yay... we all did miss her a lot! Welcome back Jeri!
