Happy Halloween

Another fun time of carving pumpkins and dressing up! This year, our little ducklings decided to dress up as Peter Pan, Wendy, and Tinkerbell. Here they are:

Prayer Requests for the Captain

Hi Everyone -

Just wanted to give you an update on our Captain. He is in his final country of destination and will be traveling these next few days to his remote outpost. Please pray for safe travels and that setup at the outpost goes smoothly. While his access to communication may be limited this week, we are hopeful that his phone and internet access will be more steady at his outpost.

The Captain's specific prayer requests are as follows:

• Health for the soldiers - many of them have been quarantined with H1N1 and other strange viruses.
• Wisdom: pray that the Lord gives him wisdom as he attempts to setup a care facility and care for troops with limited supplies and technology
• Wisdom & Strength for the leadership: please pray for the leaders of the unit. Give them wisdom as they plan their missions and give them strength to lead with integrity and compassion.
• Safety: As always, please continue to pray for the safety of the Captain and his fellow troops as they complete their assignment.

We will keep you updated as we can! Thanks so much for all your prayers, they mean the world to our family.

Three little ducklings.....

Another day in the life at home! Notice the one sock off and one sock on....Enjoy :-)

Princess Party

Time to get back in the habit of blogging again!! For starters, the Captain has arrived safely at his abroad location and we've been able to connect via phone and internet on a semi-regular basis. He seems to be doing well and is just eager for the countdown of our separation to begin. We are adjusting to life apart from our Captain...we have good days and bad days.

The Captain has been requesting some updated pictures of the girls. Our little ducks had a princess birthday party to attend today and so what better excuse to snap some new pictures?!! Baby duck kept moving out of the shot before the camera snapped so we'll have to attach a separate picture.

"We sure love and miss you Captain!!".
