good morning! Thankfully, it has been a lazy Saturday am. Jeff has definately not had one of these yet. Kate was invited to spend the night w/ one of the dear families here in our neighborhood who are also veterans in the mission here.  They are the Ball family and have 5 children. Brad and Jennifer both grew up in JXN, MS and so know quite a few of our good friends back home. Our adventurous Kate was happy to go-they have 3 girls all around her age.  We are getting ready to go on our first family outing to the beach called Juan Chaco. We are hoping to eat some good food, go fishing, sight-see, and just take in some more culture. I took my first tutoring lesson yesterday and will continue during the week for one hour each day-boy, do I need to be able to communicate. All 3 children are enjoying their school. Ellie informed us that she brushed her teeth @ school yesterday but reassured us that the teachers had gotten rid of any germs. OH MY GOODNESS!!!! not only did I not send a toothbrush to school w/ Ellie but none of the Americans use tap water to brush their teeth!  Well, any fetish I have had with safety in cars or germs is being tremendously challenged .  Thank you for reading and praying. I really miss seeing you, hugging you, eating with you and talking with you!!!!!!! 
Love from Peru, Amy

    Hello Barry's,
    It has taken a little bit of brain power to figure this thing out! Just wanted you to know we are keeping up with you and praying for you!

    Hello sister and family, I just learned that you had a blog. It is good to be able to hear how you all are doing. Wish I could talk to you, but this is good, too. It is encouraging to know that God is good and faithful to take care of His sheep in all circumstances. Love you, Kelly

    We have enjoyed reading about your experience. I could have lived without Jeff's comment about his hairy a_ but otherwise loved hearing it all! We miss ya'll and are praying for your family. Am I supposed to be turning on different lights in your house? Feeding Annabelle sometime?
    We love you all and will keep praying for your time there.
