Hey everyone!
Just sitting in the Chicago airport waiting on our flight to New Delhi. We have a new blog post over at the ministry website (www.incorruptibleministries.wordpress.com) and we would love to have you follow along with our journey. we are going to try to post regularly while we're there.
Bryan and Karen
My first year of teaching is officially OVER. It's been a great year, however, I am glad for the break. Bryan and I are already in Alabama and will be headed to the beach tomorrow for a week of relaxing with my family. 9 days from now we will be on a plane headed to Nepal. We can't wait! It's going to be a great summer! A very full summer, but a great summer!
3 Years Ago at our Wedding
My PawPaw passed away today at the young age of 91. Although he has had congestive heart failure for about a year (which is treatable) he was doing good, so it was a little unexpected. We did get to see him on Sunday so that was such a blessing to us.
He was such a neat man. He could talk your ear off (I do get it honestly). Just about any word you said to him would make him think of a war story and for the next several hours he would tell stories about his time in WWII and his travels while there. At 88 he was still swimming 7-10 laps in 30 minutes and was in the local paper for swimming 50 miles (over the course of several months). He was a very gracious and giving man. He loved to work with his hands and build bird houses. He loved my grandmother dearly and thought very highly of her. He was a great man and will be sorely missed. I'm glad to know that he lived such a full life. I'm glad to have been a part of his life and to have had the honor of knowing him.
hey everybody (all 5 of you),
we've set up a new blog to document our adventure in Nepal this summer. you can find it at www.incorruptibleministries.wordpress.com, or click here. feel free to put the link on your blog roll, as this will continue being the ministry blog even after the trip. we hope to be able to post while we're in Nepal, but from what Karen tells me, i shouldn't get my hopes up...oh well.
In thirty days...
We will be on a plane...headed half-way around the world...
To share hope with the most precious people...
I cannot wait...I have imagined this day for the last 5 years when I would get to return to these people I love so dearly and with the man I love so dearly. Its only 30 short days away.
