We are in Ecuador!!


We arrived safely to Guayaquil, Ecuador with no glitches! Well...I would say lack of sleep was the only problem. Brady wired most of the airplane ride. Probably the last time I do an overnight flight with Brady. Stephen slept great with the help of sleeping aids!

We're just getting acclimated today. Brady slept 12 hours last night and is sleeping again now. We leave to Loja tomorrow at 7:30 am. It will take us the whole day, 8 hours driving time, to go through the mountains. We'll arrive back on Tuesday.

It is so good to see family! I stayed home with Stephanie and the kids while Stephen and Titus went into town last night. He says "hola" now. So maybe he'll come back speaking Spanish :) At this point I just wish I could speak fluently like Titus and Stephanie!

Leaving for LAX!

We have everything packed and are about to head to the airport.  Brady is taking a nap right now, so I hope he is able to sleep during the flight.  We have a layover in Panama City before we arrive in Guayaquil at 2:17pm on Wednesday.

We will be spending the next 20 days with Titus and Stephanie and joining them in their ministry with street children.  Please pray for our trip as we share with them in loving the abused, abandoned and homeless youth in Guayaquil.  Here is their blog.  http://tsfolden.blogspot.com/
