A nice long visit from family

Dear friends and family,

I've still been struggling some with my health, but things have been much better then they were. We are so thankful as we continue to work on support raising! Doug is also still working some and we are sorting through belongings, trying to figure out what to take. So many decisions!

The main event in February was Doug's brother, Keith, his wife, Sarah, and their three boys coming for a visit for 10 days. They normally live in Boston, and this was our chance to see each other before we leave for Germany.

Sarah and I made maultaschen, my favorite German dish

The boys watching Sesame Street before bedtime
One of our dear friends from St. Andrews, Amy Hamilton, came and took some family pictures for us. Here is just a couple, we put a few more favorites in our update letter: 

Such a happy boy!
Happy Grandparents
We are so thankful for them and how much they help with Samuel!
