We made it!!!

Well, we have successfully made it to our destination and have already put in an honest day’s work. It is obvious to me that our kids didn’t sleep enough last night because of their frequent naps throughout the trip.
Our flight went without a hitch…mostly due to the fact that the boys slept a good chunk of the time. We watched miles and miles of water go by before we caught our first sight of land. Customs was a breeze…thanks for all the prayers. We successfully gathered all our bags and breezed through without any suspicions about our multiple suitcases.
We then met up with the other part of Spring Break team. They are a fun group from the Missouri University and have been a great group to blend with, which is good since we are spending the next 7 days with them. All of us piled on the two buses and bounced along for the three hour trek up into the mountains. And we aren’t talking Texas “mountains”, but real mountains with steep slopes and hairpin turns on a road built for one vehicle even though multiple cars would speed past us as we drove. We all would brace ourselves for the turns, and got to know our neighbors in the next seat each time our shoulders would collide. Surprisingly, some of the kids went back to sleep until we arrived at Harmony House.
Tonight we have enjoyed a wonderful dinner together and unpacked all the bags that we brought. We are settling in for the evening and crashing early. Keep an eye on the blog throughout the week, but also watch the mission’s website. They will be posting pictures as well. Our internet access is limited and sometimes non-existent, so don’t be alarmed if the posts from me are sporadic.
We love you all! The kids all say hi and thanks for the help with the packing! See ya later!!!
