up, Up, UP, and AWAY!!!!

This is one of Anna's most recent (but not the latest) creations.
She was VERY into making paper airplanes earlier this week. So after two days of tripping over lots of smaller paper aircrafts, she brilliantly created a giant version of her dream airplane.
To be honest, it has had trouble in its flight tests, but the design is truly remarkable.
She is so proud.
And so are we.
Here is another important piece of information that is indirectly linked to this picture.
We have decided to not sign another two year contract with International School Moshi.
So, when we get on the plane at Kilimanjaro International Airport in June, we will be saying goodbye to Tanzania.
We aren't sure where we will be next but we look forward to whatever it might be.
We would appreciate your prayers for us as we look ahead. :)

I will pray for your family as you look for God's direction!

TEXAS TEXAS TEXAS!!! Ha..yes I know that is not likely but God still works miracles! Seriously, we as a family will be praying for your precious family that you would have wisdom and direction, and very clear answers as to what the next step should be. What an awesome adventure it has been, but I'm so excited to have you closer! Even if it's just in the same country!

Yay!!! I mean, oh no! I mean, yay! I'm so sorry you have to say goodbye to Tanzania, but I can't wait to see where God leads you next. (especially if it's Ra-cha-cha!!!) We will continue to pray for you all, and please please please let me know if there's anything I can do to help with your transition to this side of the ocean - are you definitely coming back to somewhere in the States, or is there anything else in the works?

You've got a small group praying for you in Charlotte, NC! Love you guys and know that the Lord will guide and direct your paths.

Wow, what a big decision you face! We'll be praying for you!

Are paper airplanes a six year old fascination??? We literally have 10 or more planes lying around our livingroom right now! I keep getting pinged in the head!

really? come back to the good ol' US of A.
If you are in the area, we'd love to see you & your beautiful family!
We'll be praying for God's direction - wherever it is, God's plan is always perfect.

That is very sad news for some soon-to-be-TZ residents (ie. us.) Maybe we'll have to stop in on our way to Z.bar early Jan... just so we don't miss our chance. I think it will be very fun for you all to be back state-side. In some ways, I am very jealous!

Maybe you'll have a chance to show your family around camp someday, especially if you are in the NY area.
The votes seem to be in and the NYers are winning. New York is in your future, i guess. :)
