For the first three days we stayed with the Kerrs. The girls really warmed up to them (so did we)! Winnie jumped right up into PK's lap when he offered to read her a story. I wish I had gotten pictures of the girls playing. They had the largest amount of homemade playdough I have ever seen and had a lucrative bakery business going. "Anyone want a piece of bread?"
Farther up the road we stayed with our friend from KLBC days. It's so funny to see both of us now, what was once just her and me has now turned into 8 of us with one more on the way! Dave and Amy are expecting their fourth little baby in December. The kids had a blast and played hard. We adults enjoyed lots of conversation and tea! :) Thanks so much, Dave and Amy! It was so great to spend that time with you.
C, J and N: here are the pictures that we took of you! Hope you enjoy seeing yourselves on the blog! Thanks for playing with us and sharing your house with us!
There are many challenges in this phase of our journey while enroute to the mission field. One is that all the travelling is tiring. It is worth it, though. We find it extremely valuable to make connections with our spiritual family and know that it is important to include our kids in this. I will say that we are really looking forward to having this week "off" to recooperate. :)

Thank you so much for posting this blog of your trip. It sounds like it will be a trip to remember. I'm so glad you could reconnect with friends and that the girls had a really good time too. It helps that they are fairly outgoing. It could be hard if they weren't. I truly hope you can recuperate this week. Love you, Mom

I will have to show the pictures to the children someday soon they will love to see that.. It was such a blessing to have you here and we trust as you go out you will be encouraged. We will try to remember to pray for you often. Blessings! Amy and Dave
Sounds like a rewarding time - even though it was exhausting! Enjoy your week of rest!
