We Are Here!




We arrived safely! We were greeted by almost all the "Friends" missionaries which was so fun! Our dear friends and two of our favorite people in the WHOLE WORLD, Scott and Andrea Sward were at the airport to greet us as well. I saw Scott first and cried when I saw him. It might have been jet-lag, but I think it was genuine excitement to see our friends whom we have seen in 3.5 months! They left in September to be full time missionaries here. They are two of the most amazing people we know (and they are a lot of fun which is a bonus!) We enjoyed some time with them last night. It was so good to catch up and here all that is going on with them!

The kids slept a lot of our first leg of the trip. The layover in Taiwan and our flight from Taiwan to Cambodia was a little painful, but we made it, safe and sound. Shockingly enough, I don't think I freaked out once on the plane and I actually was not afraid! Amazing. Thank you for praying.

One prayer request, part of Trent's filling came out on the plane. It looks like it will hold up okay and won't need work done until we come home, but we'd love prayer for that. We don't want to take him to the dentist here if we don't have to. The dental care is fine here, but we prefer our beloved pediatric dentist at home.

Pat is in a few meetings today. The kids and I are getting settled and will do a little shopping. We got a good amount of sleep last night which was a blessing.

So far so good. We feel content being here. The kids are excited. Pat is excited. I am getting excited! :-) Thank you for your prayers and your friendship!
Love to all.
