Isaac and Albana

Here are a couple pictures of Isaac and his new big sister Albana!

The View from our apartment

Here is the view from our apartment. One is from the front and the other is from the back. You can see the streets are extremely narrow and EXTREMELY bumpy cobblstone. It is even a challenge to walk on. What is really crazy is that there are motorcylces everywhere riding on this 4-wheeling terrain.

We made it!!!

After 3 planes we finally made it to Flores, Guatemala. We were greeted with unusually cool weather and high winds. It is actually a blessing because the unusually cool weather is 75. Soon it will be back in the 90's but we are enjoying this midway temp. jump. We were welcomed into our friends home with open arms and spent the afternoon and evening catching up on what had been happening since the last time we saw them 4 years ago. So far the kids love it and are excited to have more extended family, especially there 11 yr old daughter Albana. I am going to go for now but will write more soon. We love and miss you all.

Waiting 3 1/2 hours for our plane that was delayed.

We have officially moved out of our house and are almost finished packing our bags for Guatemala. We leave tomorrow at 7am and will be in Guatemala for 6 months. I will do my best to post weekly updates on the blog to keep everyone updated with how things are going in our family. Thank you all for your love, support and prayers!Here are a few fun moving pictures.
