Happy 4th!


My brother and his family came to Memphis to celebrate the 4th with us. It has been 5 years since we have celebrated our country's independence day in our country. We do celebrate with our U.S. missionary friends in Peru, but it is definitely not the same when we are only 20 or so out of 1 million people celebrating in our Peruvian city of Trujillo. Not to mention, there are no fireworks, American flags, or red, white and blue decor. So, this 4th of July was special.


We enjoyed participating in our neighborhood parade, eating Memphis BBQ and watching a great firework show.




To all our missionary friends. . . we hope you had a good 4th and we look forward to joining you next year to celebrate in our creative missionary way.

Happy 4th! We were not very creative this year! :( You need to hurry back and inspire us. :)
