Colombian Birthday


I am amazed at the experiences God has given us this year! I had an awesome time going out with our Colombian friends in a cool part of Bogota for my 32nd birthday! They took us to a wonderful Italian restaurant in this beautiful area with lots of nightlife. We sat and talked for three hours, just enjoying the atmosphere, great food, and wonderful friendship! I wish I could do this with all of my friends!

Elbow Issues


When Elena started to become mobile, we knew we had a tremendous little girl on our hands. She didn't learn how to walk, she learned how to run! And hasn't stopped since! She is our fearless child and we've just been waiting for the day that we'd take her to the ER. Well, that day has finally come! We are currently spending two weeks in Colombia, which is where Elena decided to fracture her elbow! She was climbing over a three foot high fence at a park and lost her balance and fell on her arm. At first we figured it was just a bruise, but when she woke up this morning crying because of the pain, we decided to get her an X-Ray. Elena was so brave in the Colombian ER! We are so proud of her!
