The Local Wildlife...





Just a few pics to let you know we are all alive and well down here. As you can tell, Mark has not lost his sense of humor! We finished up swim lessons this week and are looking forward to wrapping up our last odds and ends to prepare for THE TRIP!! We leave on Saturday, October 4th for the states. Unfortunately, Matt and Grace will miss soccer season this year, but they both agree that bringing their baby sister home is well worth it. They all have their backpacks ready and can't wait to broad the plane. I am busily trying to organize all our supplies which include lots of meds, tons of protein bars, all Joy's essentials, cameras etc. and decide what belongs where. Meanwhile, trying not to let stress take away my joy as we prepare. Mark is busy trying to get ahead of the game with his Master's courses, fulfill all his work responsibilities and check off his honey do list. We are simply exhausted by the end of the evening and we haven't even traveled yet! We did enjoy sleeping in until 8 am this weekend which was quite a treat. Sometimes, the simplest things are the biggest blessings!
