Greetings from Brazil

We are in Natal and doing well. We have very limited Internet access so please bear with us. We've been to our new house and are in the process of buying appliances and furniture and evicting the many bats, lizards, and frogs that live there. John's mom is less than thrilled but the kids love it. In the meantime, we are staying at a hotel with lots of European guests. Apparently, very few Americans visit here. It's hot, humid, and windy but very beautiful. I promise to post lots of photos as soon as possible.

    Andy Vaughn died Saturday. He went to the mailbox and dropped dead of a massive heart attack three months after Evelyn died. Funereal is Tuesday, March 11.

    Glad you are there safe. Give us contact info when you can. BB

    Hi! I'm glad you guys are back! I was talking to Lorena the other night and she is really excited for you. One of her life dreams is to visit Natal, so who knows, maybe she'll come see you! Good luck settling in and no, you can't have your dishwasher back! :)

    I'm sure Jonah and Andy are wondering why you need to evict the previous tenants!!!!!! Tell John's mom we are praying for her, and of course for the rest of you. We think of you many times every day and love you very much!

    We are glad to know you arrived safely. Samantha, send some pictures of the inside of your house. It looks very different from our Texas homes! Don't run all the interesting critters out. Jonah and Andy will get bored. Praying for you always.

    P.S. LOVE your pictures!

    Just wanted you to know that Hannah Beth is sleeping with the big teddy bear to feel close to you guys! Cade keeps asking when you're coming back. We love you and are glad Jesus keeps us close in spirit.

    John,
    Charles wants you to know he received your message about the car. He will meet with the other elders to let them know what is happening and get back to you. We had a great day worshipping this morning.
