Our vacation time together was a wonderful time of relaxing and connecting more with Mom and Dad/Maw-Maw and Paw-Paw.
Eating breakfast at the guesthouse where we stayed
Daddy and Juliana posing for a picture with a young crew of traditional "Apsara" dancers. We ate supper at a garden restaurant that also had a live show which included traditional Khmer music and dance.
And what would vacation in January be without some outdoor swimming! Here Kai and Paw-Paw enjoy splashing in the cool water.
Juliana's first experience in a jacuzzi was quite amusing. She laughed up a storm as she felt the jets shoot water against her legs. It was too funny!
At the close of Mom and Dad's time with us here in Cambodia, I asked them, "When people ask you how we are doing, what will you tell them?" After some thought they said that they will share that it seems we're adjusting well to life here. We were happy to hear this. As we continue to go through the "growing pains"of making Cambodia "home," it was helpful to see ourselves through Mom and Dad's eyes and to recognize the progress we've made in being ourselves, learners, and blessings here in this land.

Talk about a dado question (the one about merrill and elaine's response to how you are doing). I just read one!!! Happy to get another update and eager to see lots more pictures on Friday!mosa
Glad you got to get away for a bit with your mom and dad. Looks like you had a great time together. I am sure it's been a time of re-adjustment again with them gone. :)We are having fun looking forward to Spring. Played a little baseball outside today...okay, so we are a bit optimistic about the ground hog seeing his shadow. :) Happy Valentine's Day. Love, Mis.
Hi Guys!
Sorry so lacking in correspondence.
I love the hot tub shot. Donavon & Landon were in a regular tub with jets on vacation last year & they loved it :-) Bethany, we are planning on lining up your parents to share at M.G. in the next month or two. We can't wait to see more pictures & hear about life in Cambodia. Blessings!
Brett & Jen
The photos of your family and life in Cambodia are beautiful...I love them! Can't believe how big the kids are getting! Hard to believe it's been almost a YEAR since I've seen you all. Glad you were able to enjoy a nice visit with family. We're thinking of you, praying for you and missing you!
Love, Jen Eby
