May Happenings!
Our May was insane! It started off with Dayle and I taking a short trip to Minnesota for my brother’s wedding. It was a beautiful ceremony, and I loved the White Castle hamburgers at the reception. Yum! I guess that’s what happens when you marry a chef. Dayle and I also got to help decorate Matt’s car- payback for our car 19 years ago! Ha! While we were in the states we also got to speak at our home church Remnant Ministry Center and see friends and family. However, it was more like, “Hi. Long time, no see. Bye!”
After Minnesota we returned to Guatemala and had a few days before heading to Tapachula, Mexico on a bus. We needed to take that trip because our kids needed their visas renewed. So we stayed there a couple of nights and headed back to Guatemala to prepare for another tip- Nicaragua. Someone had given Dayle and I free plane tickets to attend a regional YWAM conference there. While we were in Nicaragua Dayle and I got to visit with a missionary friend from Remnant. Tom Imgrund and his wife Cecilia took us on a tour of Managua and out to dinner. We then went to their bakery and got to be heroes by bringing donuts back to our friends at the conference.
After that trip it was time to get ready for Alicia’s high school graduation! Dayle completed an amazing 12 years of home schooling and we watched our daughter in cap n’ gown walking down to get her diploma, which we got to give to her since she was schooled at home. In August she’s planning to move to Minnesota to work and prepare for nursing school. So we’ve come full-circle: To Minnesota, back to Guatemala, to Mexico, back to Guatemala, to Nicaragua, back to Guatemala, to Minnesota. Life is funny… and short!
