Early Monday morning we headed out to G.C. for a few days. We were very thankful to the Lord that all the kids were well again. Lauren and Ryan had both been quite sick on the week-end. We meet up with Nico and Lia in the city and headed over to a seminary (different then the one we stayed at when we first arrived) where we spent two nights. This seminary is quite large and has a lot of property. We stayed in Casa Grande-and it is quite "grande"-four bedrooms and two bathrooms as well as a large living area and a kitchen.
We enjoyed staying at this seminary quite a bit more than at the other one because there is a lot more room for the kids to run around and play. Wilf and Nico usually spend quite a bit of time running around the city getting things that we need for the mission. The kids and I stay at the seminary since running errands with five kids is not fun!! Nate loved it the first day we were there because a large group of men were playing soccer and they invited him to play and even gave him a team shirt. There is also a playground for the smaller ones.
We stayed for two nights and then headed home again-with lots of groceries and other supplies. Nico is a master at packing things into the vehicles! We were all glad to be home again, although the change of scenery was nice for a few days.

Glad to hear everyone is feeling well again, and that your water is back on. I am glad that you are able to think of your place as home now! Praying that God will give you much strength for every day.
Love,

Great hearing from you guys again. I must get scary when you get sick, especially Lauren so far from "home". We love keeping up with your blog...thanks for being so faithful. Praying that the Lord works mightily through you!
Having a beautiful few weeks here! We had a great time at the cottage, and had a hard time getting it into our heads that summer is almost over! We went to the beach this past Wednesday and it was hot, and the water warm! Real life kicks in tomorrow when the homeschooling starts!! Love you guys!
