    It’s so amazing to think two years ago Rob and I saying I do’s!

    God has really blessed us within these last two years. Within these two years we have moved  about 5 times, had a baby,  and traveled out of the country twice.

    It’s been great! I just can’t wait to see what other adventures God has for us to conquer in our marriage!

    We have now been back for a week and a day!  We are getting used to our pleausures of the states! Like having a dishwasher!  Bela did very well coming back! she is getting used to sleeping in crib again, and in a different room from us. ( It’s harder for me then her!)

    This first week has been quiet and  good debriefing time!  If you’d like to get together with us just give us a shout out!

    Family Photos This was our last weekend here. God really blessed us because all of Manuel and Elvia´s family (and ours too) were here!  On Sunday we took pictures of all the family, because they hadn’t done that for years. It was hard to say good bye but we know we are coming back

    It also was  very interesting because  we also had all the kids from the Saturday morning Oansa program sleepover too!  What a wild night!

    It was a fun and a sad weekend and we are now working on packing, which is kind of hard because it reminds us that we are leaving and saying good bye to our Ecuadorian family.  Please pray for us during this time of saying goodbye.

    Child Care Ecuador This time in Quito really has been an amazing experience! I’ve been enjoying helping out Elvia with all her work!

    For me it’s so cool because I’m getting to work hands on with these kids, showing the love of God, through teaching, giving food, and just playing with the kids!  I love it so much and I feel so privileged God has given me this opportunity  to be here!

    It is really special for me also because all growing up, I’d watch the sponsor a child programs and wish I could go and do something for them, well now I am…. Lots of these children do get sponsored. They come from one parent homes where that one parent has to work two to three jobs to feed their five plus children!

    And this next week is going to be a special week for the kids, we are going to have about 50 kids sleeping here on Saturday! Please pray that everything turns alright and pray for all the children!
