Home Again

After almost 3 weeks on the road we are finally "home" in Pennsylvania. It feels good to spread out, do laundry and get back to some much needed studying. (I'm sure my children would NOT agree with me about that third item) You know how us ladies like to have routine in our lives! In less than 5 weeks we will be heading back to Chile and we are very much looking forward to that. In the mean time, we are enjoying the days that we have left here with our church family knowing that we will soon have to say good-bye, again.

I had all kinds of pictures to share with you but once again tragedy strikes our computer world and all of my pictures were downloaded into a computer that has burned up!! So, this will be another pictureless report of our family. You'll have to use your imagination as I relate some of the things that have happened in our family.............
1. On Monday, Joshua turned 3!!
2. Garry has been going to the dentist everytime we are back in the area for some much needed dental work. He's been "crowned"!
3. Three new churches have taken us on for support.
4. I was able to "reconnect" with an old college friend of mine.
5. We were able to spend a day with my aunt and uncle in Atlanta, GA. I had not seen a cousin of mine for 15 years.
6. My grandparents were voted the Valentine's Day King and Queen in their nursing home.
7. My son Andrew has a new blogspot. findtheefaithul.blogspot.com
8. My sister will complete 2 years of marriage on my son Timothy's birthday.
9. My kids FINALLY got to play in the snow. It was so icey when we got home they made an igloo instead of a snow man!!
10. We were able to meet a lot of special people on this last trip out. Many of which have sacrificed financially to help us as we are here in the States.

Our home church is finishing up missions month and my husband will be preaching this Sunday night and next Wednesday. Andrew will be singing a special for the first time here in our home church. On March 3 we will head out to the midwest to visit my family and have a couple more meetings. We are thankful to the Lord for his traveling mercies. We missed all the snowstorms (sometimes within 24 hours) and the van has run great! Thanks to all of you that are praying for us! Until the next posting......................

On The Road

Hello! Sorry that hasn't been anything to read lately. We are out on the road and have been spent more time in the van than out of it. We have been in several new churches and one in St.Marys, GA took us on!! We've done some other fun things and will be seeing some old friends so I should have lots of pictures to share soon!! Don't give up on me yet!! Please pray for us as we have another week of traveling before we get back to our home church. Hasta luego!!
