We have arrived in Sudan! It has sure been a long journey and an exciting one since we have been here. It is very dry and hot, hot, hot. I would let you know the exact temp but there is no weather man here to let us know. The kids have been absolutely amazed since we got off the plane. They may not speak Toposa but they are having no trouble making friends. We have all been rubbed on and laughed at more than you can imagine. Walker is the laugh of the town. They aren't sure if he is a girl or a boy and his pacifier cracks them up.
Today we met with the head chief of the area we will be living. He has been so nice to us and he even remembered our names. He told us that he is glad that our family will be living in the village. We can't wait to move out there!!!
The house situation is looking great. We got the okay on Friday and the company said that it should be on the way within days. Once it makes it up to Sudan it will take about 8 weeks to assemble. We can't wait!!!
The pictures are from the visit with the chief. The kids were playing while we were talking. Benton fell in love with this sweet little boy. Davis and Walker were busy playing and dancing around with the kids.
Tomorrow morning we will attend a church in a nearby village that was started last October when were last here. It has been averaging 70 attenders.
Happy Father's Day to everyone! We love you all.

We are so glad you are finally were you are suppose to be. The boy's look good and I can see they are busy making friends. How was Church on Sunday? We were thinking about you as we went to Asbury in Bossier. I am busy cooking yellow squash, corn, zuchini, bell peppers and anything else Grandad brings from the garden. Wish you were here to share with. Our prayers are with you as you begin your journey with the Toposa people. We love you.
