We're Home from Peru

We arrived home early this morning (5:50am)and slept most of the day.

Here's a picture slide show to tease you. :)

I promise I will post individual pictures and stories soon. I am eager (but too tired (and really sick) to share all that God did in Peru.

Please know we are SO thankful for all of your prayers and support. Having a team back home praying us on meant more than you will know to all of us.

Please stay tuned and enjoy the slide...
