A Calm Week

Evie trying on a Princess hat Mylee made at another Princess Party!

Mylee couldn't smile very big because she had a big piece of candy in her mouth.

Silly Evie with her swimming goggles on!


After last week, this was a much needed calmer week. We made it through, however. We think Wednesday night Mylee ate some bad ham and got sick two times in the middle of the night. So we were ALL up changing sheets and getting her cleaned up. That was a pretty hard night. But in the morning Evie slept til 7am, which she hasn't done that since...well I can't remember the last time she did that. Why couldn't it have been on a Saturday? Oh well.
Aaron and I went out last night for Valentine's Day. We didn't do much, however, because we were so tired from the week. So we decided to go watch the Pink Panther 2. It was a great therapy movie because we laughed quite a bit through it. Then we went and found Mylee and Evie a Valentine's present. We bought each of them some chocalates and a little doggy in a purse. Aaron and I very carefully selected a different one for each of them that we thought they would like. Well they found them without us this morning and ended up picking the opposite of what we had picked for each of them. Oh well I guess we still have a lot to learn! But the important thing is they didn't fight over which one to have.





Looking ahead: Please be praying that our visa papers for Mexico will be processed quickly. We have 10 weeks to go and the business manager will not buy our plane tickets out of here until we have a fax saying they are processed. Also a couple weeks ago we reserved a mission house in Lee's Summit for our stateside assignment in 3 years (talk about looking ahead-2012). However, our first option has become a possibility for us again as Missionaries in Residence at Midwestern Baptist Seminary. This would be the best option for us as Aaron will be completing his Masters there and I will be completing my Bachelors at UMKC. This would save us on gas expenses and travel time to allow us to have more time as a family. Please be praying for our acceptance by the president of the Seminary. Have a great week!
