Fab weekend!

We were so blessed with a really wonderful weekend that I'm letting it carry me into this not-so-great Monday! The weather here is ridiculously nice and we are taking FULL advantage! We went hiking/walking at the San Gabriel river on Saturday and had a blast! Then we managed to re-stain our wooden couch and grub on some great fish before going to game night at our new friends' house! It was so much fun! On Sunday we enjoyed another great church service, lunch with my family and more outside time.

George is blown away by how bright it is so late in the evening! Last night he jumped up at about 7:30pm and exclaimed, "My sweet, wonderful Jeesis! What the HECK?!" Ghana has 12 hour days and 12 hour nights-year round (it's pitch black shortly after 6). Never in his life has he seen such a thing. He is REALLY enjoying it. His joy and wonder over things I daily take for granted puts things into perspective and keeps me grounded. I am very blessed to have such a smart man who still gets amazed by simple things.

We are hittin' the job hunt hard and trying not to be frustrated! This past week/weekend we each found jobs that we are VERY interested in! They suit our skills, talents and experience AND they pay well! We are praying, praying that we can get interviews. Not to sound cocky, but we feel pretty confident that if we could talk with the hiring people, we'd be the ones to get the jobs. So please pray with us that God would guide and direct this search, that we would get the right jobs soon and that we would continue to have hope and faith that these things will happen.
