Packing, unpacking, laundry and repacking








I should be packing again, but am running low on motivation as it is our fourth and final trip of the summer, including the two camps and that trip to Austria. We leave tomorrow for Slovenia where Jayce and Tate will attend JV Kid's camp for the first time. The rest of us will stay down in that part of the continent, to avoid 4 eleven hour drives there and back, there and back. We will be visiting a few different friends along the way, as we travel around Italy, Slovenia and Croatia.

The boys are super excited about camp, I'm just hoping they remember to brush their teeth!!! It will be a great opportunity for them to spend time with the other Josiah Venture missionary kids from all over Eastern Europe. The leaders and counselors of the camp are all JV missionaries, most of them single or married without kids. Mel and Amy Ellenwood are heading it up, and the boys find great comfort knowing that they will be there, along with their three kids!

I am including a few more pictures of our family's time in Austria with my parents. Ed and I were thrilled to tour Salzburg with only Jayce and Tate, seeing many famous Sound of Music sights. My parents graciously babysat the three youngest for the day, so we four could better enjoy walking all over that beautiful city. Dad, Mom, and the three "littles" had plenty of their own fun back at the hotel and surroundings.
