Albuquerque 2016

Colorado 2016

We took a trip to the States in February/March and it was so good to be able to see our family! The big reason that we went was to introduce Eve to her extended family. She had been able to meet Tim's mom & sister when they came to help after her birth. She had also gotten to meet Jeni's mom when they met up in Germany. But there were many more people that she hadn't had the chance to meet yet.

We had a good time traveling with the five of us! Joseph and Faith are super easy to travel with. Between all of us, we can share the responsibility of Eve. Of course we were so glad when we finally arrived!

Sri Lanka

The three managers had planning meetings for some of the time. We got some down time and some fun time! We're glad we got to go to Sri Lanka.
