ultimo dia

so ... its the last day in guatemala.  

tears. literally.

we just left andres' store.  we had our last lunch with them and now we are going home to go to bed and wake up and leave. in the morning andres and cristina are picking us up without kids and taking us to the city at 4am.  Our flight leaves at 7 and we should arrive in Honduras at 9:30.  Right now there is a lot going on concerning getting into the country and our flights so we would really appreciate you all to be praying about that.  

i have never had this hard of a time leaving people. i really will be homesick when i get home. missing these kids and cristina and andres.  wow.  

so cristina made a video for her friends in the states and showed it to us today and showed me how to use the movie maker and i told her that i would do that with these pictures. so ill try to upload it later . i dont know if we will be able to get on at all in Honduras right now ... but i will still write and just blog it all at the end of the week if i have to!

so i havent posted in forever so theres no way i can update you on everything thats gone on ! ill try to capture the important parts !

one. abby and i are going to guatemala in dec. for a week. i plan on taking my new shoes and we're so hiking the volcano this time :)

two. im hoping maybe we can go to honduras the last weekend we're there ... ohh i would be in heaven if that worked out.

three. encounter was ah - mazee - ingg last night ! i wasnt gonna go cause i had a psyc test to study for but i went anyway. oh and i am so glad that i did! ... so this week we split up and had encounter at different locations. it was awesome. the group i chose to go to was the "work" group. at the begining matt shared his testimony of how he was led to the ministry , which was great. then we split up boys and girls, which suprisingly enough there were 10 girls! yehh! 10 girls who chose to take time out of their thursday night to go to a meeting for those felt led to the ministry. so we pretty much just went around the room and shared callings. it was awesome!! and such a variety! we sat there and just talked. like old friends. it was like because of this connection we have through the Lord we can talk about anything . it was great. and i think it was what every one of us needed. it started out with an "have yall experienced thiss...." and was followed by a YES! Yeh! and yehh!'s and ended ... well, when matt said we couldnt talk anymore! we're suppose to be doing this again in a couple of weeks but the Lord has really put this on my heart. I think we're probably gonna get together again soon and im going to see how they feel about making it a more common thing. theres so much more to say about that night but i think i can stop there.

four. we went looking for a futon for my bedroom at home today. they want to make it a play room. funny , isnt it?

five. i could talk all day about how i love auburn. i want you all to know that i really do love it here. ... it just doesnt compare.

six. last one. im trying to talk my dad into getting his passport. :)
