We made it!

Just a quick update to let everyone know we made it safely to the mountains! After a short delay in Miami, and having to many airplanes for the number of gates at the Port au Prince airport, we finally made it out to Steve who was waiting to take us back  to the mountains. We hit rain shortly after we hit the trail and it rained most the way back, for which we are thankful for, because we are quite dry here right now! We arrived back here at the mission at around 9:30 unloaded our stuff, had a bite to eat and hit the sack!  Today we spent unpacking, and finding a home for our stuff. 

Thanks to all who prayed that we would have a good trip. Every thing went very well, and Makayla slept most of both flights. 

A few things you can pray for:

-Good health, especially as the chikungunya fever (which is transferred by Mosquitos) is hitting a lot of people quite hard lately.
-That language learning would come quick and that our vocabulary would grow.  
-Safety as we have several trips to make to town in the next week.  

God bless you all in your corner of the world!

A few pictures!

Here's a pic of where we have been staying the last 2 weeks. 

Here is our semi trailer where we have all our personal belongings stored for the next couple years. 

A shot of the inside. 


We head out around midnight tonight, and get into Port au Prince at 3:10 tomorrow afternoon. Most likely heading up the mountain yet tomorrow night. It will be so nice to finally be settled in our house down there!

Count down is on!

Well it's hard to beleive we only have 4 more days here in the states, and off to Haiti we go! Things are coming together nicely. Most of our bags are packed and waiting, basically we just need to pack our carry ons, and a few last minute things, and we are ready to go! 

Tonight we are enjoying s'mores and some Carmely chocolate mountain pie things. Got to get our fill before we leave! :).
