~Kimberly and Sarah's short break from school.~

Please continue to pray for Fernando...
Our dear friend Fernando, who was in a motorcycle wreck is really suffering!!! 
His insides were crushed in the wreck, so they are DAILY having to go inside him and clean. :-(
He is in TONS of pain!!!!
Since Mariela (Madi ella) is staying with Fernando in the hospital, we have their precious son Jeremiah with us.
PLEASE KEEP FERNANDO AND HIS FAMILY IN YOUR PRAYERS!!!
THANK YOU!!!!

Kimberly and Sarah wrapped up this past school year on Tuesday. (Remember that they took their 3 month "summer break" in November, December, and January, as we worked on our U.S.A. home, spent time with and said goodbye to family and friends, , packed and then flew to Colombia on Christmas day.  We spent a month with our church people there in Colombia, and then flew here to Argentina on Jan. 22nd.)
So this week Kimberly and Sarah are taking a SHORT break before starting This New school year on Monday, Lord willing.
~This called for a COFFEE CELEBRATION! :-) :-) :-) ~

 ~Then since Daddy had a birthday this week, we went to a new park about 16 blocks from our house.
It's a fun, clean, and well-lit park that we really like.
Here's Baby Abigail swinging.~

 ~Noah and Elijah asked a group of boys if they could join their soccer game.~

 ~Sarah and Kimberly on the side-lines of said soccer game.~

 ~Sarah skating.  We are Glad that the new park has this neat smooth place to skate and play soccer.~

 ~Sarah and her Sweet Daddy...the birthday man. :-) ~

 ~Baby Abigail.~

 ~Mary and Abigail in a little Merry-go-round that they turn with their hands.~

 ~Mary, Elijah, and Noah.~

 ~As we were leaving the park we found this bigger Merry-go-round, but it was HARD to push.~

~And here's the new park all lit up at night.
Aren't all these lights fun?
Doesn't it remind you of Christmas?
The first night our family went to this park and saw all the pretty lights...
IT WAS LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT! :-) ~

 ~For supper on Phillip's birthday we ate at this simple pizza shop.
It wasn't fancy, but the pizza was good.~

 

 ~One of our yummy pizzas.~

 ~Our 2nd yummy pizza.

 ~Kimberly took this fun pic of Abigail looking at the pizza.~

 

 ~The birthday man, yours truly, and SWEET baby Abigail looking up at us. :-) ~

 ~Abigail all tuckered out, on the walk home from the park.~

 ~The next day, we packed up some snacks,
some hot coffee,
some Argentina Mate,
a Tent,
2 ripsticks (the boy's funny skateboards)
and every ball you can imagine,
and went to the river park for several hours.
~Kimberly, Mary, Mommy, and Abigail just "chillin'"~

 ~Noah and Mary playing by the river.~

 ~Daddy and baby Abigail.  (We didn't put the "roof" on the tent, for it was too windy.) ~

 ~That's A LOT of sweetness wrapped up in That pink coat and pink hair bow. :-) ~

 ~Kimberly and Abigail.~

 ~Sarah and Mary down by the river, with downtown Buenos Aires behind them.~

 ~Noah, Sarah, Kimberly, and I (pretending that there was a volleyball net in between us) hit the volleyball back and forth for practice.~

 ~That little face, my friends, happens to look EXACTLY LIKE HER MOTHER (Me!) WHEN I WAS LITTLE! :-)~

 Phillip has had a great Birthday week...and it's not over yet! :-)

THANK YOU FOR YOUR PRAYERS 

FOR FERNANDO, HIS WIFE MARIELA, 

AND LITTLE JEREMIAH!
