I dunno...I'm busy

What a whirlwind the past few months have been. We headed to So Cal for Christmas with Bob's family since mine is all in Texas or Ohio now...had a great time staying at his brother's home and spending time with his mom. We did take just a Veach family day with Mickey...Nick finally got to ride Indiana Jones (he was 1/2 inch too short last year), they loved it! Spent 4 days in Long Beach for Tsunami (annual State Youth conference). The youth get freaked out 'cause we always run into all sorts of people we knew from college and our years in So Cal.
Now, we need to start focusing on this summer's trip to Brazil - God willing, we will raise the $$ needed for the boys & I to head south with Bob when he heads down to set things up in early June. Most of you have probably received a letter asking for at a minimum your prayers, and we do really covet those! And some of you have already even sent some monetary support - of which we are really grateful as well. I will do my best to keep you all updated on our progress - our next big step is passports for the boys, which we should be able to get going next weekend (both parents have to be present to apply). I was in Brazil 24 years ago now and am looking forward to going back!
Time to go switch laundry and make some lunch for the monkeys before they head out with Bob to help get a baseball field ready. I forgot to mention, we did survive the awful wind storm that hit 2 weeks ago - 65 mph winds are not normal in this area. Some people in the area went for over a week w/o power! We got lucky & only lost it for nearly 10 hours. So, the batting cages at the Christian high school were semi destroyed - nothing up here is made to withstand that much wind.
Have a great weekend!
