We Made It

Well, with only minor problems, we made it to Albania! We were stopped at the airport and told we couldn't fly to Albania without visas, so we had a breif panic. The best part of it was calling up Jeff Gep and having him just repeat over and over, "Holy Smokes." That quote already made it into our quote book for the trip. In the end, though, we got on the plane and it's all taken care of now. Megan's luggage didn't make it, but it sounds like it'll be resolved and she's taking it well.

Right now we're all very tired. We got up at 4 AM to go to the airport and right now it's about 7:30 AM or so back in Chico, but about 4:30 PM here. We've been commenting on how we're so tired we're dizzy, and how we've certainly hit a wall. We've been having a good time though, and our humor is still here. We already all have nicknames: Kurt is Big Poppa; Lisa is Hot Momma; Kyla is the nanny; and Meg and I are the children. Maybe not problem children, but definitely mischeivous.

We're heading out, so I'll update more later!

Hi Alex,

It's great to hear from you! I'm glad the Visa thing worked out. We know that God is always at work, but it's reassuring to see it so obviously!

I hope you get to meet Laura Bush. That would make for a great story!

You're in my thoughts and prayers, as always!!

Love, Mom

P.S. I think you and Megan need better nicknames than the children, though. I'll try to think up some good ones.

Hi Kyla, et al
I just created my own blog spot, it is "Fah-ear Oh-acks" ... get it? If not, you have to read the first entry. Sandy thinks it's really stupid.
Anyway, congratulations on making it to Albania. We are thinking of you, and so glad all of you are safe and sound.
