Catchup - part 4

Well, here it is the final installment of catching up. I am going to combine a few things into one so that I can be done with this and get on to the fun things happening everyday :-)

Sarah moments after she walked in on all her friends yelling surprise

On March 14th my Sister-in-law turned the big 3-0. So we had a big surprise party for her. It was so much fun to put it all together for her and shower her with blessings. We BBQ'd tritip, and had all sorts of yummy deserts. We also decorated the house with fresh flowers, candles everywhere and even some frilly touches on the table. I hope she was blessed, and that she knows just how much we love her.

Brent and Sarah standing next to some candles, Brent was the mastermind behind the whole party!

Completely by accident my future sister-in-law Elena and I dressed alike for the party. Truth be known I got dressed after I had already seen what she was wearing but I honestly didn't remember what she was wearing. Besides it was a great way for the two daughter-in-laws to bond :-) We had a lot of fun taking "Mrs. E" photos and being silly.

Matchy Matchy Purple Squared. Go Team!!!

It was also decided during the first part of March that Daniel and Elena would be getting married overseas in Morocco. SO, we decided that we are going to join them for the festivites. We could not be more excited! It is going to be a chance to see the work that is going on, visit with old friends and be together as a family. For the first time EVER the whole family is going to be together in Morocco! All six kids hanging out and celebrating!

And what a celebration it will be, not only are we getting a great new sister-in-law but we are also going to be partying for 3 days straight. It true Moroccan style we will stay up late, dance long and eat way too much food! I'll be sure to blog all about the adventure. I can hardly wait!

We will only get to be there for about 13 days, including travel time. And you can be praying for our travels. As of right now there are about 11 adults, 5 infants (two of which are almost 2 years old) and 1 child all on the same flight together. Pray for us and the other people on the flight. Oh buddy are we in for it! Anything for family though, right?! :-)
