Caroline Grace

I cannot believe my baby girl is almost 6 months old.  Time really does fly.  I look at her and I am amazed at how fast she is growing.  In the last couple of weeks she has started eating cereal (which she loves) and she is pulling up on her knees and rocking.  She scoots [...]

Kenny has arrived in Cairo

So Kenny and the guys arrived in Cairo. He is loving it! He said he cant wait for Lucy and I to be there too. After talking with Matt and Adam, two men of families already there, he is even more excited! He will be looking at an Apartment for us while he is there [...]

Normal?? Almost!

Wow it has certainly been a crazy month, so crazy that I almost feel like my life has stopped!  Similar to when you are planning your wedding, or having your first child, it seems that those exciting and stressful times, make it feel that life stops for a moment.  But then you wake up and [...]

We are so excited!

We are so excited about the next step God has for us. In case you are just tuning in, we are moving to Cairo, Egypt this fall to work with a unique people group. It’s been a long process but affirmation has finally come after 6mths of pr@ying about our next step and after another [...]

It has been one month…

I cannot believe that we have been here 1 month…we are still alive, and for the most part we still like each other!  For those of you wondering…there are some car seats here in Egypt, not very many though.  Often times you will see newborn babies riding in the front seat with their parents.  When [...]

Going to School

The boys have done great in school.  So I took a video of them walking to a taxi and heading to their preschool.  Adam is usually the one who takes them!!  You can also here Cairo yelling “Momma”, he wasn’t upset, he was just liking the fact that he could see me on the balcony! [...]

Cheerios and tweezers…

They bring all their stuff in my house.

Funny story, I wake up to Adam saying to me, “Liz get your tweezers and a flashlight and come here quick!”  I am thinking what in the world, so I droggily get out of bed, stumble to find my tweezers and the flashlight and meet Adam in the sitting [...]

Things are coming together…well sort of!!??

Things are coming together FINALLY!!!  PTL!!!  We are officially in our NEW flat!  Although we are sleeping on just our mattresses, and we have 3 chairs that we are borrowing, putting our feet on 2 area rugs, and awaiting our dulabs (closets), our couch, our stove and refrigerator, and one more bed….we are loving it here.  [...]

We found it!!!

Well we officially decided on an apartment today.  We sign papers tomorrow, and begin our hunt for all the things we need, yes that is right, the apartment is unfurnished which means no hot water heaters, no air conditioners, no kitchen cabinets, no furniture, no dulabs (which are their versions of closets), etc.  Good news [...]

Change…

Well, we have news…the government here will not allow us to live in our current flat because foreigners are not allowed.  So we are looking at two flats tomorrow, and hopefully, prayerfully we will find our new home.  They have been gracious to give us the whole month of May to find our permanent place.  [...]
