I am back among the living :)

Wow, how do I even begin?  It has been four months and I haven't posted a thing.  Has nothing been going on in our lives... oh, the contrary.  We packed up our lives into a tiny one bedroom apartment in China, crammed everything else into a load of suitcases, and ventured back to the states.  We have been back in the states since June and haven't stood still since- or so it seems.  Our time has been filled mostly with getting reacquainted with family and friends and getting our bearings in the American culture.  Here's just a small glimpse into the last four moths... actually just June.  I couldn't narrow down the options so decided to post one blog of just June pictures.  More to come soon- I hope.

    Love your pics! I know you are enjoying the time with family. How long will you be in the states?

    We just said goodbye to some friends from China who were spending three months working in Louisiana with an exchange program. We fell in love with them and hated to see them leave. We were able to share the Good News with them and see the Father begin to work in their lives. It was an exciting time.
