Hello! All the children are sleeping now and I have the computer all to myself! What a special day this has been. Most of the day, I admit, was spent wondering how far the Webers had made it, checking emails to see if they'd written, and listening in case a plane came. Not many planes come this way unless they're landing here, unlike the US where we live right by DFW airport and hearing planes is a regular sound. No plane. We even checked the ferry a couple times. No Webers. They let us know tonight they made it to San Pedro Sula and will fly to La Ceiba tomorrow morning to catch the ferry and be here possibly by 6pm tomorrow. Yea! They had a long , eventful day! Good to see them on Skype tonight and visit to hear they're doing well.
The girls and I went to the beach and I had a personal photo shoot , by my girls, for my birthday as per the request of my Mom and sister. It was fun. Sorry we didn't post pics today. We were ready to, but Mermaids ,who has the strong signal we need for posting pics, was closed most of today (Saturday) and when we tried back later, they said their wireless wasn't working. We'll try again later. Between all the activities the girls purified more water and did spanish homework. I still need to do mine!
Diana ran late with dinner, so we walked to her food booth where she was still cooking our dinner at 8pm (was going to be at our house by 6:30). So I helped her finish the pasteles, while Bonnie and Andi rode bicycles with their daughter,Yessy, then we all went to my home. Wow- Pasteles were bursting with flavor of beef, spices and potatoes! Yum! Then they all sang Happy Birthday in spanish then English to me and we shared strawberry cake with chocolate icing and sprinkles. Diana had made so many tortillas today, so Bonnie gave her a hand massage- she's good at those! She nearly put Diana to sleep with it. Jose shared with us his desire to preach in spanish and English. They rode off on their bicycles at about 10:30pm for their home. Such a nice evening.
Alfredo, our diving instructor,Tatiana's husband, stopped us in the street today and said he wants to take us diving one day......just all of us with him and Tatiana. That'll be a very special treat! They're amazing and sweet people, keep them in your prayers -they need Jesus and we're so happy to get to spend time with them.
What a sweet day. I better go to bed and catch up on some sleep before our eventful day tomorrow!
Blessings to you all!

Hello Denise, girls and hopefully Weber's!! It was so good to hear from you Denise and what a wonderful birthday you had with all of your girls and all of your new friends. The meal Dinah fixed sounded so good. I'm sure she did appreciate the hand massage!!
Your post was just so full of exciting news. I really need to read it again and also have Uncle Ed find time to sit down and read it too. We just got home from church and to check your blog was the first thing I wanted to do.
Must get going but will check and write again later.
Love, hugs and prayers,
Aunt Becky and Uncle Ed
Sounds like a very nice birthday.
We'll look forward to seeing the pics.
The Weber's are in our prayers while they are hopefully on the last leg of their journey to you.
We miss and love you all.
Love,Deanna and Fam
Good Tuesday to you all,
Just a quick hello. Praying the Weber's arrived and you are all having a wonderful time. Can you even believe that you have less than a month before you will be coming home? Everyone is so looking forward to having you back and hearing all of your stories.
We were so glad to hear that your VBS supplies arrived and hope to hear exciting stories about that soon.
Sending lots of love and our prayers,
Aunt Becky and Uncle Ed
Whew!
Sounds like you guys got the "king size" package for island dweller. ^__^ I hope to see the pics soon! Also can't wait for you guys to visit me here in Clearwater! Hmm... Although it's probably not that beautiful to you anymore (you've been living on a tropical island!). But, oh well, you'll just have to deal with it. ^__^
Still praying for you all! I'll put Jose and Tatiana on my list too.
God bless you guys!

Hello Stephanie,Amanda, Bonnie and Andrea.
Sorry it's been awhile since the last time I wrote. I've been out of town in midland for a couple weeks straight trying to close this job out and we have had some problems getting final inspections but the opening date is only a day or two away now. I was tracking the hurrican and it looked like you should have had some bad weather but nothing to serious, I pray all is well. I'll be able to check in more often now and skype when I get back home. I love and miss you all so much. Can't wait to see you again and I bet I'll be able to tell that you've grown.
Love,hugs and kisses.
Dad
Hello Islanders,
Have really been missing hearing from you so hope that will be soon. Anxious to hear what you and the Weber's have been doing and hope to see those pictures. (Denise---have you done any underwater bike riding yet?)
Have a blessed weekend.
Our love and prayers,
Aunt Becky and Uncle Ed
I wanna see pics go up...
We want pictures, we want pictures!!
I 3rd it - we want pictures - we want pictures - & pictures of Marge and her girls too - and the whale... and we want to know you are okay too.
Hi Denise and girls,
We finally heard from your mom today and she said she has not heard from you since your birthday but thinks that you are just busy teaching the Weber's how to treat water, cook, etc. So, we are going to just trust that that is the case. But...we sure hope to hear soon AND...see those pictures!!
Only 24 days (your mom is counting) until you come home. Can you even believe how the time has flown by? I'm sure you all have really mixed feelings about leaving.
Hope to hear soon about the VBS and updates on all those new friends of yours there that we have been praying for. Leon, Tatiana and her husband...and the work you are doing there. Did you even get to show the Jesus film? You are sure going to have a lot to tell when you get home.
I tried to check your weather there because of all the hurricanes but wasn't able to get anything much so could you please let us know what you have been experiencing there other than cloudy days and light ocean breeze.
Love you all and send big hugs and our prayers,
Aunt Becky and Uncle Ed
