The Porritt's are here!

We have been enjoying quite an exciting week this week, as our great friends from our home church in Tremont have been here visiting with us! Luke and Debbi Porritt and their four kids came last Sunday, and will be going home again on Tuesday. Those of you who know the Porritt's will not be surprised to hear that the week was full of fun and laughter! What a refreshing time to have great friends with us, to have sweet times of talking, great fellowship, adventures with the 9 kids, and games played almost every night! Our kids loved every minute of it...except for when they had to go off to school! :-( And a huge thank you to all of you who sent goodies along with them to bless us! We are now fully stocked with peanut butter, Parmesan cheese, cooking spray, taco seasonings, onion soups and beef jerky! Thank you!!!

The Porritt family was truly a blessing to us as they spent the time and the money to be with us. Having them see our world over here was so fun, and they saw just about everything in Bardejov. They are quite adventurous as a family, and don't sit around doing nothing very often. Therefore, they were able to see the boy's school, the kid's preschool, our church, meet our pastor and youth group, go grocery shopping and souvenir shopping, tour an old castle ruins, visit a couple of our restaurants, and even visit the grand hotel up the hill to try out their pool! They definitely made the most out of their vacation, and we are so thrilled that they did!

We are currently spending the weekend in Budapest, Hungary where they will fly out on Tuesday. This is also an adventure, and we are loving it! So thank you, Luke and Debbi, for choosing Slovakia for your 10th Anniversary trip, and for blessing us as you did! We have all made some wonderful memories that will never be forgotten!
