Here is a look at our family life over the past month.
We made a trip to Quetzaltenango for our quarterly team meeting. This was our Saturday morning view of the Santa Maria volcano.

Cruz began a seven week flag football program that will end with a game in late May. Here he is after his first practice. He loved it!
Ben went on a field trip with Encounter Academy to Los Celajes, which is up the mountain from Antigua.

We enjoyed a Saturday evening fire and roasted hot dogs and marshmallows.
The boys and I were invited to an afternoon outing at our neighbor's house to play games. This was my coffee cup while there.
Home alone, pizza, and the Pioneer Woman- what more could a tired mama want?
We enjoyed a visit with an old friend who was in town. We first met Maria back in October 2008. We were flying back to Guatemala after making our first vacation trip back home to Mississippi since arriving on the field in 2006. We were flying on Delta buddy passes and got bumped several days in Atlanta trying to get back. While waiting to see if we would get a seat, we met the sweetest lady who was also flying on buddy passes and trying to get to Guatemala to see her sister who was dying. We formed an instant friendship and have regularly kept in touch all these years. She has been back to Guatemala a few times since then to visit family, but we have never been able to meet up. After fifteen years of emails, messages, and Facebook interactions, we finally saw each other in person again. It was so special! We enjoyed a meal together that included us getting to meet her daughter and her getting to meet the boys.
We celebrated Ben's 12th birthday.
Ben was invited to a birthday celebration for two of his friends.
