Been a Few Days

What's up Kathy!? haha You are the only one who knows about this, so I reckon I will talk to you. But if anyone else read this...hey to you too. It's been a while since we have written anything about what we've done since my last wonderful experience in the capital. Kathy really enjoyed that story...kind of weird. But we did give the sun glasses to the men in the ministry and they loved them. We showed them a movie as well that NIGHT, and I looked out at the men there, and several of them were wearing their sunglasses in the dark room while they watched the TV. It was hilarious...I reckon they liked them.
On Thursday another person was shot in the village, from the same family that is always shooting each other. It is a family, uncles, cousins and brothers, shooting each other. They have been doing this for years now, and it started over land and has now continued as revenge for the other killings. Horrible. Brandi and I were going to be visiting the families this day, but after we heard that the shooting had just took place...we thought it wise to wait until it had calmed down a little and the families weren't walking around looking for each other to shoot each other.
We also went to a "zoo" in a city near by with the kids Friday because it was Labor day here. It was small, but it was a lot of fun to be able to get out with the kids and do something different. The city we went to, Esquipules, was beautiful. It is amazing how much greener it is outside of Chiquimula. It is so dry right now. It rained really good a couple of days ago, but it is still so dry.
Brandi sang today at a preachers seminar. She said it went really well. She was suppose to sing at 8:30am, but of course she didn't until 10:15am...it actually was suppose to start at 8am, but it didn't start until 10am! But she said she had a good time. The pastors of our church also asked Brandi to start singing with the band every three Sundays...of course she's very excited. I just hope she doesn't kill one of the band members dancing around like she does! :) I think she really has this singin thing on her mind here lately because she's been singing in her sleep a lot. My wife talks so much in her sleep, I would love to put an audio recorder in our room to catch some of it and share it with someone. It's so funny!
Well, Bye Kathy!
