Mornings


Cuddling in moms "covers" with there silkies

They love to do this every morning



There is even smooches sometimes




The older kids come in before leaving for school. I love this time of the day. I am definitely a morning person . (after I have had my coffee)



MORNINGS ARE GREAT UNTIL PAPI LEAVES ... THEN IT IS A COMPLETE TRAGEDY FOR BRAYDEN . HE IS DEVASTATED ALL MORNING

Look at that sad face

The twins love baths and would stay in all day if I let them . Usually they get one bath a day but if they are driving me crazy I give them another one :) Whatever occupies them ......

Mission

FAVORITE PICS Interesting way to build a house

This is as traditional Mayan as it gets ... they even cover there head in this area



Guatemala City dump from the airplane




Eating with friends at Casa Santa Domingo . There was a earthquake while they were here




This sign was put up after the earthquake :)



Some of the kids that come to Homers everyday for food and education





These little boys walk over the river everyday to Homers house to get food 'cause there dad is in a wheelchair. Look at those eyes :(




When the plane landed they had police waiting because word had spread in the village that gringos were coming . The police had to make sure they didn't have drugs.






A school they stopped at





So cute


Love these boys .... so handsome !!







Mark and a few other guys from Church went to this village to prepare for a June mission trip.
