Missing Tacos already

Here are our teammates (Patrick, Brandon'a, and Sophia), next are Doug and Sandy Holcomb (Missionaries in Cuernavaca and possible future mentors/co-workers), then Kevin Haynes (Dean of Missions and an instructor at S.I.B.I.[He worked as a missionary in Equador for 5 years and served as our translator and mentor on our survey trip], and then of course there's us. (Our parents were able to watch Noah and Juliana for the nine days we were in Mexico...WHAT A BLESSING that was for our trip!)
Here are the famous Tacos Al Pastor. They can be found especially in the area near Mexico City. They are indescribably wonderful. We weren't in Mexico for more than 2 hours before we were sitting in front of a plate full of these tacos. :)

Thank you SO MUCH to all of you who helped us get to Mexico. It was an amazingly fruitful trip. We eliminated San Luis Potosi from the list and we're deciding between Aguascalientes and Cuernavaca. They are both beautiful cities with unique and appealing works. We'll be prayerfully considering them both. Please pray with us and for us.

Also, Alpine Church of Christ graciously and generously helped us purchase a used Minivan for our work in Mexico. We needed a vehicle that would be reliable and have enough room for our growing family. We decided on a Toyota Sienna. It has been and continues to be a huge blessing to our family. THANK YOU! THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH! Your support for our studies and our work is such a blessing!
