We had a great vacation in Florida, even though it was hot. It was so nice to relax & enjoy no schedule for a few days. Now that we're back to reality, the first priority is to get ready for school, which begins August 27! Aurora is so excited & ready to get back (mommy isn't, but I'm happy for her). I've enjoyed my time at home with her this summer & it's going to be hard to let that go again & give her full day over to someone else. But watching her excitement & desire to learn makes it all worth it. Her reading has certainly progressed over the summer - it's like the whole world is a huge sign & she's reading it all with vigor!
Dan is busy putting the final touches on his fall schedule - which is filling up quickly. We're looking forward to going to the ABWE Central America/Carribean Conference in September as a family. Our passports are all in & we just need to do the paperwork for school. We're praying for the weather that week - as it will be prime hurricane season! Yikes that's scary! But it will be great to interact with the missionary families there & get to know more of them & also discover what personnel needs they have on their various fields.
Please pray for us these next two weeks as our schedules/routines change again and other events play out as the fall approaches.
