Family vacation

This last couple of weeks have been a bit of a blur... just so much going on while trying to get ready for our vacation (finals at bible school, church programs, kids getting ready for Teen Missions, traveling out to the village). Jake's cousin Jenna came in after a day's delay in Paris. She is such a trooper and is fitting right into our family, it is a real joy to have her here for a couple of months. There have been some major storms here the last couple of weeks and the electric and water have been off a lot. Our internet router blew up as well as our laptop cable (praise the Lord is wasn't the computer!). It took over a week to get back up online and we were able to borrow a cable from friends until we can get one here, but it is so good to be connected to the world again. Tomorrow we head to the beach for just over a week, we are all so ready for a bit of a break. In a strange sense of irony, we just heard that the electrical transformer blew up there and that there has not been electricity there for over a week... hmmm looks like we might be vacationing with candles :-D. Anyway, at least we will all be together having fun.

So I will be posting lots of photos when we get back. Be back soon!
