We have made it to Brazil. We did have a slight glitch (which really turned out to be a blessing)- we missed our flight from Atlanta to Rio on Wednesday because our flight before arrived late. So...I called my cousin Greg at 10 pm, who lives in Atlanta, and asked if we could crash at his house since the next flight to Bra zil did not leave until 8:40 the next day. It was the best thing that could have happened to us. We had such great time with Greg, Susan and Garrick. We had such a good time I was actua lly hoping they would overbook the flight so we could spend another day with them. The pictures are the kids in the guestroom bathtub. Greg said it took an act of God (meaning bad weather to delay our plane) to get anyone in the family to visit him. Well...Matt and I are in the "God Business" so it just seems right that we would be the ones chosen :) to be able to visit.
So we flew overnight on Thursday, the kids did great on that flight - Abby LOVES to travel - you should see her pulling her princess backpack on wheels through the airport - very cute.
And now we are in Rio. We had a full day of outreach and Jesus is doing wonderful things. We have a bed to sleep in, a shower with warm water, GREAT FOOD, and many beautiful Brazilians helping us. I hope to write more later.
PLEASE...IF YOU READ THIS BLOG, WILL YOU MAKE SURE OUR FAMILIES KNOW WE ARE DOING GREAT. THANKS

I'm glad to hear that you got there safe and sound. I have a great image in my mind of Abby and her suitcase. Keep sending the updates, I'm reading them.
