We’re Going On A Bear Hunt

One of Ellie’s favorite books is ‘We’re Going On A Bear Hunt’. During our trip to the Blue Ridge Mountains, we decided to make our hikes a little more interesting for her by telling her we were going on a bear hunt. We had a blast exploring caves. 

 

We found some bears but thankfully they were stuffed and in a restaurant 

Ok so we probably will do lots more bear hunts 🐻 

Family

 I recently heard the quote ‘there is the family you are born with and the family you make along the way.’ This has never resonated more true than at this point in our lives. So thankful for all of our family and those who have become family. 

Fall in the Blue Ridge Mountains

 Our time in the States has been amazing and filled with lots of much needed time with family and friends and speaking at churches most of our weekends.  As amazing as it has been, we have to admit we were tired. After our last speaking engagement we took a dear friend up on her offer to spend 4 nights at their cabin at Wintergreen in the Blue Ridge Mountains. It was so refreshing and rejuvenating and exactly what we needed to fill our physical, emotional, and spiritual tanks back up before our return to Botswana. We are so thankful for each moment of our time in the States and ask you to pray for us as we prepare to return to Botswana on November 10. 

I love the quote by Henry David Thoreau ‘I took a walk in the woods and came out taller than the trees’ 🌲
