Recent Village Trip!



Can you see Josiah down below?  He was just soaking up the view!



Here is a Miao village house

Josiah was so curious asking so many questions like "Where is the garden?"  So when he found this garden he was super excited!


At one point Josiah was outside alone and I went out to check on him and asked him what he was doing.  He was just looking around talking.  Then to me he said "Did you know Jesus made all this- he made the mountains and the river- it is so beautiful!" It was so cool to see him putting what he's been learning in his bible stories together with natural revelation when faced with such created beauty that we dont' get to see everyday!  Just precious to hear!




they keep their farm animals in the basement or side of their houses- they don't have barns like we do in the states

love this shot here- have gotten it several times in years past!  Last time EJ was in my belly- now she is almost 3! 


kiddos on the bridge



Miao lady styling her hair- check out how long that hair is to wrap it up on her head!  wow!


Miao house- I actually love the village houses- they are quite spacious compared to city living!


the kids were so excited to see horses and pigs and a water buffalo too

  We are so thankful to get to see old friends and a village we love!  We are blessed!
