They have arrived!!!


I received word that the team in now on the ground in Accra traveling slowly to the village and looking forward to sleep.
Everything is good and they love everyone back home.... I think that is what they said, the phone lines from Ghana are a little fuzzy. Parents you can now relax.

  4. All afternoon everyone was asking about you, Rachel--we were at Ed and Marie's birthday/anniversary bash. You have well-wishers all the way from Chicago. For the American half in you (and Hope, Isaac, Mikaela), there were fireworks and sparklers, because over here it's still July 4. We saw Nathan and Sarah there too. It's nice to see the full moon and think that you can see it too--kind of like God that way. Greetings to everyone. You'll be happy to know all of your sleeping bags are waiting for you at Tracy's house. Love, Mark and Alice

  9. Hi y'all, hope the trip over wasn't too wearing.
    By now you will have had meals - enjoy the excellent local food, you will learn to love several new things! Remember, lots of water and sunscreen, and care for one another. Watch out for the "Chippy" moments... We'll be watching you as you post. Looks like you have way more followers than our "oldies" team had last year-this is a good thing as you will find out when you hear all the messages. I know you are already learning lots - take time to pray as you go.
    Lots of love to all, and especially our adoptees.
    From on the road in St. John's NFLD - another way cool place,
    Ellen

  10. Be aware - during our last mission trip, George W.Bush visited Accra and made life awkward, now President Obama is visiting Accra next weekend, maybe Monday - Daryl, did we learn a lesson last year?

  15. Hey twins it was good too hear something from the other side this time. Good too hear little bits of your experiences so far. We are all well just wondering how you guys have been doing. Jack you are so lucky you mentioned my name. (love ya) Was talking too your dad last week at work he was there making a delivery but he didn't mention about the blog site so I am not sure if he has figured it out yet but I will find out but he is akay and said he was proud of you going. Chelsey I don't hear my name in YOUR messages either, what up with that. lol I think of you guys every day and yes twins I miss you a little but not that much haha. I am getting used too you not being around so there isn't all that much difference with you being gone except that I don't come home from somewhere with a surprising amount of dirty dishes that weren't there when I left and the food lasts alot longer lol. The kids miss you too I know Isaac checks the site everyday too so they do wonder how you are. I am sure they probably miss yu guys even more than I do. I can't wait too see all the pictures you have taken and there better be some good ones of the scenery too. ttys love mom
