Zacapa Guatemala

I figure no news is good news!

We don't plan to hear from the kids until their return, unless

something horrible happens -

so I am good with not hearing from them!

(I guess that's the Navy wife in me :)

Today the team will be doing construction...

-trench digging

-electrical conduit installation

-painting

Wow! and Brady though mowing our yard was tough.

Maybe after this training he'll be willing to do some

handyman jobs for me around the house. :)

They also get to be part of the

Ground Breaking Ceremony and Dedication

of the newest house to be built on grounds.

This house will be the home

for the next House Parents

and about 15 orphans.

They also will be putting on a

small drama play later in the week,

so the will be rehearsing today.

Kenzie will love this!

Praying they are having a wonderful time!

Praying they are making new friendships!

Praying they are making new memories!

and most of all

Praying they are seeing God's hand

in all they do this week!

On the home front...

Jorja is really confused as to where

Brady, Kenzie and Uncle "Bebe" went.

We really did try to explain it to her using a map and all -

I think it is just nerves. She did sleep well last night,

so hopefully she is feeling more comfortable

and realizing that I won't snatch her up at night

and take her to the airport and

send her off too.

What kinda mom would do that to her teenage kids?

Jailyn is good to go.

During calendar time we added a photo of a heart on the

day they all come back -

Jailyn is focused on counting down the days until

they return.

Conner - though he wont admit it...

misses his big sib's incredibly!

Lots of body language

and emotional outburst.

It gives he and mom extra cuddle time too!

And how can that ever be a bad thing?

Thank you again for all your prayers for the kids and the team!
