Here' a pic of the car we bought for all those who haven't yet seen it. We got a good price for it and after a few minor repairs it is running good and we are so happy to have some freedom. Thanks again to all helped with our car project!!!Our first stop on our trip to Pelotas was with our friends Pipa and Jordana who are getting married March 10th. Jasper is going to be their flower girl. Very exciting!! We stayed at their friend's beach house. A bunch of friends came for Jordana's birthday and enjoyed a pool party!
On our trip to Pelotas we went to a local hangout where lots of people chat and have chimarrao or terere. Jasper is enjoying a terere with the gang!Jessi was hanging out in the pool at our friend Ana Paula's house in Pelotas. She learned how to jump in and loved every minute. "PULA, PULA, PULA!!!" "JUMP, JUMP, JUMP"
We also went to another friends BIG farm for a night! We played volleyball, cards and ate lots! Jessi is eying up the cookies and making sure Lidi shares! Our friend Marcelo graduated from university and we all got to dress up. Lidi as always looked beautiful and had a great time with her friends.

We finally got to meet Suzane!!!! Our friends bought an old Volkswagen Kombi and are fixing her up. She is famous with the youth and young adults there! Dwayne was in his glory! They've even sold t-shirts with her name on it to raise money to get her fixed up. Lots of fun!!! We of course bought a couple of shirts to help with the cause!


Jessi took her turn at the wheel! Just a bit of trouble reaching the pedals!
We had a great time and are thankful for the friends we have made! We look forward to the new ones we will make once we move to Quest in Santa Catarina. God is good!

Wow...praise God for friends, fun, and fellowship! I am so thankful that you have been able to imerse yourself so much into the community, and pour yourselves out, and into others! I would be lying if I said I am not insanely jelous of your adventures :) But at the same time, I am incredibly thankful that God is so faithful, and has shown you his favor!

Continue to be a blessing!

It looks like so much fun! The girls are getting to be so big and it's cool to see how Jessi has grown since I last saw her! I am praying for your family and I hope that everything is going well for you!
