Prayers for the girls

We just put these two goobers on a plane......

......to hang out with these two goobers for the next six days.

They are going to a city called Campinas to take the ACT on Saturday. Our buddies, Mark and Ali, are missionaries in a city near Campinas called Itu. They have graciously agreed to pick up/drop off our kids from the airport and to take them to their test.

It's safe to say this goofy couple are some of our most favorite people to hang around with.

The girls will have a ball with them this week. They won't just be hanging out with Mark and Ali. They told the girls what they will be involved with this week. Some of the things include being Christ to the homeless on Friday, hanging out with the youth group on Thursday and going to a birthday party together on Saturday.

We haven't met many people who just come right in and roll with our schedule and who aren't intimidated by the size of our family. Mark and Ali have always been a natural fit with our family. We love those guys and are thrilled that Bronwyn and Ansley get to be with them this week.

They also have a blog. Go here if you want to check it out.

Please pray for our girls to be safe this week, to have fun and to not worry about the test they will take on Friday. They've studied enough and they don't need to study anymore. Our prayer is that they relax and just do the best they can.

More important than this test and any scholarship is the fact that they get to be a part of Mark and Ali's ministry this week.

The other kids are already missing them.

Well, sort of. 

We know they will have a great week.
