We have been getting Ava updates every day or two from our great friends and coordinator in Kaz. She seems to be confused but is still her happy self which is good. We are trying to keep busy here and are counting down the days till we can return. There is still some hope that we wont have to wait till September to begin again so please pray for a miracle. We spent a great weekend down in San Diego with my family. While we were gone in Kaz my parents sold their house, which was the house I grew up in, and moved out to San Marcos. Their new house and community is beautiful and we had a great weekend spending time with them and exploring their new town.


We went on lots of walks and saw some beautiful sights near Mom and Dad's new home.


The puppies were happy to see us and show us around the lake

We were so happy that we got to see my sister who is now off to teach in Vietnam for nearly a year


We are trying to relax, enjoy, and refresh in beautiful Southern California before picking up this adventure once again.

Here are some pictures from our last visit with Ava before we left:
