Merry Christmas!

It's been too long since I've posted.  I've been meaning to get to this for awhile now, but things have been busy and getting to the internet is not always easy.  Joel is enjoying his work at the hospital.  Our trunks did arrive the end of last week.  They are at "House 3" where we will be staying long-term.  We are glad they are here!  Just in time for Christmas.


The painters are nearly finished inside the house.  Then we can start putting things away and be closer to moving in.  We also need to make sure we have filtered water there, among other things.  

I am feeling fine-hungry and tired!  We are eating Christmas dinner tomorrow with the other missionaries.  We celebrated Joel's 46th birthday yesterday with all of them.  Nice to be getting to know them all better.

We miss you all very much and truly appreciate your continued prayers.
