On the drive home…..
Today is September 30th and we are finally driving home…to
Tallahassee! It seems so strange, actually. We are so happy to have reunited with Carol’s family in
South Florida. It was wonderful to see everyone and catch up! There is nothing to replace the feeling of being so loved and accepted by our family! There are no […]
2 great days….
Wow! What a blur the last two days here in San Jose have been. On Friday, Allen had an adventure returning the rental car to the next town over during rush hour traffic. He actually enjoyed it though, because it was kind of like being in a race against the clock. He had to have […]

We are writing this post from our hotel room balcony in Heredia (a community just outside of San Jose) which is overlooking a lush tropical garden with the lights from houses twinkling up on the mountain sides that are surrounding us. It is also in the 60’s and Carol is in her sweats and wrapped […]

This is the song that comes to my mind to describe this day (Monday, Sept 24). About mid-morning, we found that TJ had gotten into the children’s Tylenol bottle and eaten some of them. When Allen asked them how many he ate, he said, “2,3,4,5,6,7,8” (which is funny now, but wasn’t really then). We had […]

Today, Saturday has been such a eventful day! It began with a yummy pancake breakfast and a vistor. We had the pleasure of getting to know Whit, who just joined the Alternative Missions team here a few days ago. We invited him to join us for a pancake breakfast (one of our favorite things to cook) […]

What a Sunday we had yesterday! It started with us having the opportunity to go to the local Baptist Church in Puerto Viejo. Since it was Independence Day Weekend in Costa Rica, there was no kids church, like there normally is on Sunday morning. Ronnie and Tammy, the missionaries here, attend the local church and […]

Well it has been a full month since we have done a weekly post. It has been our intention every week to post, but it seems like there has always been some obstacle when we actully get the time to do it, whether it be no internet connection or other distractions (albeit mostly good ministry […]
read more...Back Online….
Well we’re back online. The entire town of Puerto Viejo has been without internet for the past 4 days and it has been frustrating. We’ve had emails we needed to send and family to talk to using skype and even bills we needed to pay online and we couldn’t do a thing. That is just […]
read more...One Fine Day!
Today has been such a wonderful day for us! It sort of started last night when TJ was whiny and having a hard time again. Carol cried a bit in desperation and asked God to please help TJ to be more “himself”. He is usually such a pleasant sweet boy, but he’s been pretty unhappy […]
