PHOTOS again

Yesterday was church and then the beach.  I have a few photos of each but promise to get more today- I will TRY to get everyone in at least one picture.  :)  We go to the orphanage to distribute clothes from the bus donations and others, go shopping for shoes, teach another few lessons, and finish working on the coops.  The chickens SHOULD come today!!  YAY!!!  Redgi is also buying the food for the big party and fun day tomorrow at the orphanage.  We are all well but some are feeling the effects of the Caribbean sun vs. the Michigan sun from being at the beach.  It was much more intense so even people who "never burn" saw a little pink!

During church Jack made a buddy!  :)

SUMMER STAFF!  What a blessing these two have been so far...  (thank you, God for sending them)

The group in the water!  So pretty and actually shallow for quite a while....

  1. Another morning of waking up and running to the computer to see if there was a new posting...hooray...a posting AND pictures!! Must say you look a tad wilted by the heat but no worse for the wear. And the photos of Steve hugging fellow brothers - priceless!! Loved seeing everyone at the beach and also loved Jeff's comment about 10 years worth of vanilla! Sounds like we may need to plan a bake sale (specializing in vanilla items) to raise funds for future Haiti trips. Looking forward to hearing what today brings. And also looking forward to your return home later this week. May you all enjoy these last days in Haiti. And praying that they be filled with many blessings. Love, Karen/Mom

  3. Loved the pictures! Thank you for posting Crystal...especially since most of them were of my handsome guys ;) I cannot believe tomorrow is the last day at the orphanage. It has went by so fast...I am sure for all of you as well. Praying for the party tomorrow- that all who attend will truly feel celebrated as a child of our God and King!!! Bring on the festivities and continue to be blessed as you serve and share His love.

  4. Haha...I was just showing these pictures to Grady so he could catch a glimpse of the top of Katie's head. Partway through, he looks over at me and says "where's Haiti Bob?"... The legend lives on
