Celebrating!


We have a lot to be celebrating right now. On the evening of July 31st, our team leaders, Mark and Lori Berry had their fifth, a beautiful little girl named Hadassa Andrea! We had the priviledge of visiting them in the hospital yesterday with Noah - he was delighted with her and even learned her name right away. Congratulations, Mark and Lori!

Yesterday, August 1st, was our fifth anniversary. Noah got to have his first sleepover on Thursday night with Kayla and Bella (THANK YOU JEREMY AND AMANDA!!!!) and we escaped to a nearby hotel for the night. Michael had it all planned and included so many sweet, romantic details. We felt like we were on our honeymoon again! It was just marvelous to get away, for the first time since Noah was born, and be able to totally relax and spend such special time together.


Lastly, we are celebrating our return to the States today for Matthew and Kerry's wedding! We are just SO excited to be coming home, to see family, and to share in the joy of another beautiful marriage! As we're finding, a marriage only sweetens with time and we can't wait to watch Matthew and Kerry begin their journey together too.

Just had to include one little picture of Noah and Tito yesterday playing cajóns. Again, he's doing great and he's excited to stay with Elita and Elsa in our apartment while we're gone. He can't wait to practice on the piano here. (c: (Thanks again, Amanda and Jeremy for letting us borrow your camera!)

Congratulations on your anniversary! I know that your sweet courtship has lasted much longer than the 5 years you have been husband and wife. Praise God for the blessing of marrying the love of your youth. :)
