Well, we made it back to Brazil and amazingly all thirteen of our checked bags made it too. But let me back up and share the amazing blessing that happened at the airport. Yes, thirteen checked bags, sounds like a lot and it is but let me explain. One bag was two years of school... Continue Reading →

Hello America! We are back baby! And yes, for those of you worried about Tucker and his lack of chicken tenders, he has eaten plenty of Chick-fil-A and Zaxby’s since our return. I told you in the last post we had some big news coming and here it is. It’s so good to be back... Continue Reading →

Two teams down, one in progress, and one team left to go in this marathon of June. I am so sorry it has taken this long to get this post out but, in my defense, I did warn you I would be busy. The last team of the month was a team from Tampa, FL.... Continue Reading →

Chris, Liandro’s wife, helps with all things MOYO child sponsorship on the Brazil side. She explains to the kids how to fill out the letters and why we do them. The kids love to receive...

The day we returned home, I headed to the lab to pick up my test results (benign, yay) and then over to the doctor’s office to get my stitches removed. We came home to rain and more leaks in the roof. The owner hired a man to come fix the roof, so hopefully this won’t... Continue Reading →
