The "Kids"

Yeah, I know they're not really kids anymore, but people still ask about our kids, so here are a couple recent pics. Mikayla is doing well as she serves in an after-care home here for girls rescued out of trafficking. Here is a pic from her recent update, and it features Ben's beagle, Alba, who is loving all the attention at their home.
We also had a blast last week when Mikayla was able to join a soccer tournament for the day; it had been a while since we'd been able to watch our kids play sports, so we had a lot of fun with it. Even though they had never played together (some hadn't even met before that day!), and it had been a looong time since some of them had played, they did very well and even took 2nd in the tournament!

I haven't gotten many pics from Zach recently, but he went back to Missouri for Thanksgiving, and my mom sent me this one as he was the official French Silk Pie chef.

Over Thanksgiving, Ben went on a mission trip to Guatemala. They were able to help with some construction, VBS type ministries as well as an ESL ministry where Ben got to tell Bible stories. They also got to roast marshmallows over volcanic rocks on their day off :)

The most exciting news about the kids is that the boys will be here in just a couple of days, and we will get to spend Christmas together here! So excited to see them again!
