These are their plans, with snapshots from their year...

Quinne Brown (Connie)
"I will be back with my American Family, celebrating how only the Americans can, big tree, lots of food, many decorations and lights etc. It will be good to connect with dear friends that have become my family over the past ten years and see our family for a few weeks.
