Hi family,

Wow...our email is down at our house, so it´s been a few days since I checked and it seems so much has happened. Hey Markus, sounds like you are entering a good healing time...we´re praying for you. Maybe we will need to be super intentional with some good talks while we´re all together.

Well, we spent the weekend at the sitio...it was WONDERFUL!!! We cut grass, pulled weeds, cut up logs and basically cleaned up really well to eliminate as many places where snakes could hide...hehehe!!! No, but we did leave it in pretty good shape for us to be able to enjoy it.

Caleb and Muki went on a art class field trip on Saturday to see some art exhibitions in Porto Alegre...they loved it. McDonalds was also on the agenda! Hannah of course thoroughly enjoyed the day alone with Mom and Dad!

Ok, here~s the big question. What do you want Mom and I to bake for Christmas? Let us know your favourite Christmas baking and we will try to do our best. Let me know ASAP to be able to buy everything necessary to make your Christmas memorable!

Have a great day...we can hardly wait to have you all here!

Love,

Patsy
