Where did Summer Go?...on the move again



Wow, this summer has flown by!  We made a trip to Dar and the coast of Tanzania, done projects and art, stayed up late watching movies, played outside, and other summer fun.  Last week, we made a trip to Nairobi, which was supposed to be just overnight, and ended up being four days-- our vehicle broke down on the way home and we ended up spending two nights in a hotel in the middle of nowhere!
  We were blessed though- no one was hurt, we were safe and together, and we were at a hotel that had a pool... and we were able to RENT swimming suits for the kids.  From the kids' perspective, it was a mini-vacation, but Bill and I were stressed out about the car! ;)  It all ended up alright though, thanks to those who gave towards our vehicle repairs.
    We will start school again on Monday, in the midst of packing for a move.  It seems that our family is always on the move, packing, unpacking.  We haven't stayed in one house for more than a year since Bill and I were in married student housing. (At least that I can remember) 
     Yes, we are very nomadic, but this missionary lifestyle lends itself to adventure!  Never a dull moment.  Now, we will be entering into a new area, and beginning "afresh" again.... Let the games begin!
