Bye Until January, We will Miss You!

November 13, 2014 Posted by Karen Huxter 3 Comments

This is another photo blog.  Sometimes being too tired to write, because writing requires thinking, is not a bad thing.  Photos speak more than words anyway.  Besides Joan and Keith know how thankful we are for them and how much they will be missed between now and then.

 

Cap-i-tan Kief has returned to Haiti. Yay!!

 

Kief’s better half is here too this year. Double Yay!!

 

Keith and Joan were welcomed ‘home’.

 

Keith organized luggage in van and truck for Roma team

 

Joan did a lot of sorting and organizing in her five weeks here

 

Keith has worked on or at ‘everything’ here

 

Joan doing schoolwork with Moise and Judel

Soccer with Keith

 

Keith is always busy – when HATS has a team and also when we do not

 

Joan’s amusing first experience setting up the tents

 

Hockey with Keith

    If a picture is a thousand words .. you got a lot of words in this blog – love the story it told.
    There is never a dull moment at HATS-Haiti making very happy children.
    Joan looks so happy with Ti Luc at her side.
    A quote/prayer in my devotions today – I prayed it with you all in mind; "Lord, You have known me since the beginning. You know my doubts and fears, yet You love me still. Sometimes I feel as if I am adrift in confusion. I need You to lovingly urge me on past that darkness and into Your light. Thank You for Your patience." (Compiled by Jill Jones)
    Special love to the Children ..
    Love & Prayers every day,
    Maxi Hugs <3
    PS – See you in January …

    Loved the photos. I know how much you all are missing Keith and Joan but hopefully knowing they are returning helps ease that pain. Ti Luc's passport photos AGAIN???? Hope this is a good sign.
