13 hours until take off!
In less than 13 hours, we'll be heading out the door to board the little plane that will fly us back to our home in Sudan. After almost 2 months away, we're all excited and eager to be back with all our friends. Please pray for safe travels tomorrow, February 1 and please also pray for our family's health. Bethany is just coming down with a flu that's been going around and we're hoping it won't spread through the family. Adjusting back to life in Sudan is hard enough without having to also deal with sickness!

4 days left
There's a wave of excitement going through our family right now. Since we've been out of Sudan and away from home for almost 2 months, we're all eager to get back. Yesterday we did our big Yabus shopping and filled 2 120-liter barrels with food, school supplies and books for the kids, and other stuff for the next few months in Sudan. Those packed barrels in our living room remind us that we're only going to be here a few more days. What will our next few days look like?
- dinner invitations with friends
- purchasing the last few items on our list
- eating the last few special foods that we'll miss while we're away.
Please pray for us to settle back smoothly into life in Yabus. After almost 2 months away, there will be a thick blanket of dust and many wild creatures living in our house.

An Interesting Day
Today was a day of firsts. In trying to always be prepared for the unique challenges and difficulties that Sudan offers, we learned how to put in IVs, carry injured or unconcious people, and stitch up wounds. It was a good day.
I remember my first real exposure to blood was in AP Biology when we were required to go to the Kijabe Hospital and observe a surgery. I lasted a literal 2 minutes and sat down for the rest of the surgery in the room next door.
Today went a lot better. The kids enjoyed watching the adults run around, put holes in each other, and sew pigs feet. They even joined in and carried each other around on the stretcher.
