We’re leavin’ on a jet plane……
Well, this Thursday we are takin off to Chicago. It feels like we’ve been waiting forever to go on this trip, and now it’s only two days away. We are headed there with the whole family. The first couple days we get to spend with my aunt and uncle. We are so excited to see them and let them get to know the kids a little more.
Then we’ll head to the agency for a week of training. There will be so much to learn this week. Lot’s of cross cultural learning, and training to get us ready for our move overseas. The kids will be in class all week as well, learning about other cultures, and just having fun. But I think one of the hard parts will be that we’ll away from them, except for meals, from 8am to 6 or 7 pm. We’d love for people to be praying for us and the kids while we’re away, and we’ll fill you in on our trip when we get home.
As a little extra, I’m posting a video of Eden. She was listening to music on the computer and singing, but when I came down to video tape it, she said she was too shy to let me see her. But she said I could leave the camera there and she would sing if I left. So, this is what I got. It starts off a little quiet, but picks up in the middle. I think it’ll make you laugh.
Ladies and Gentleman, welcome the next American Idol. Amanda and I cracked up at this video, especially the right hand motions that Eden uses to show she is “all that.” Halfway through the video she scared the daylights out of me when she sung (shouted) “boo!” to her song “I scared you.” Yep, you scared me alright…3 feed back in my chair! Enjoy your trip to Chitown and fill us in on the details when you return. We will be thinking and praying for you all.
Clay, Rueben, Kelly, Carrie…watch out….cause you ain’t got nothin on Eden. Yes, this video is one of Eden’s great moments in her life, and could be the beginning of a very sucessful carreer. Yet, where you and I see talent, Erik, Jeremiah sees a future of a very flirty little girl. I don’t know where he gets that…;) Anyways, we’ll tell all about our trip, but I know you’ll be pretty busy with your beloved little girl, which I will want to hear all about. Thank you for your prayers. We need them!
Look out world here comes Eden! Her T-shirt fit perfectly with her style… Hurry back now!
We’ll most definitely be praying for you all!
- great video
