A tribute to Mike and Aileen

Our good friends Mike and Aileen left Bolivia about a month ago after spending a year here. They worked with students at the Bolivian Evangelical University in sports ministry and taught English. Aileen also coached varsity girls basketball at our school and they were always involved with what the kids were doing there. They were a blessing to everyone around them here. Chad and I are ever grateful for them, and feel so blessed to have spent this time with them. Now they are back in Montana....we miss you!!!!!!!

We loved having Travis and Elizabeth with us. They are easy going, sweet, and wonderful! They had a good time visiting orphanages and meeting the people we know here. Elizabeth came to school with me one day and made fast friends with the kindergarten kids! We took them to Guembe Mariposario ( a butterfly observation place with lots of pools for swimming). They have this sweet play area for kids with an awesome castle with a room of mirrors at the top! I would have played in that castle for hours when I was little! The big metal structure is the observation tower. I didnt' go up that day...makes me dizzy. (oh, and if your wondering who that is, that's Chad, showing off his muscles...oh dear....)
