Today....

Well, today has not been the best day of them all; I went to bed last night not feeling well, slept awful, stayed in bed most of the day, haven't eaten or done anything today.  But as the day went on, it got better and better.
We got to talk to our parents, Jason and Kerby, Pappy, and the Mayes'.  It was really nice to talk with all of them. Really felt like we were back home--or closer to home.  The kids got to talk to their friends on Facetime.  The kids really enjoyed it.

Then we had a nice rain--a lot and really loud on the tin roof-I'm going to have to record how loud it is...but so relaxing!
Then we had a visitor-Paul, who used to live with the family downstairs.  He came up and introduced himself and invited us down for cafesita (coffee).  We did, and it was nice to just talk with people--they shared what they were doing and we shared what we were doing--the kids got to play with new people, which is always a good thing!
We watched a little bit of Spanish cartoons-nothing beats that; had supper-which I didn't eat because I was still feeling not so good, ended the night with a game of chicken foot and got the kids ready for bed.
Although that sounds like a pretty normal day, after all of that, I sat down and looked at Facebook. I saw that our friends Sara and Micah Waddell-who have been with us the whole step of the way- started a new edition--Flat Crawfords--so we don't miss out on everything going on back home.  Here are some of the pictures:

It was so sweet, and we were so humbled--not only that we missed Wednesday service at our home church, but that they were praying for us and taking time out of their night to take a picture with "Flat Crawfords".  Thank you Sara and Micah Waddell for thinking of us and sharing all of it with us! Love you!
In Him,
The Crawfords AKA "Flat Crawfords"
