Who am I kidding?

Why on earth I thought I could keep TWO blogs going is beyond me! :)  I hardly have time to keep one going these days, let alone two.
So, for now, I'll just be updating our Thailand blog.  You can click HERE for my latest post.... and you can follow that from now on if you're interested in keeping "in the loop" with us.
I'll keep this blog and may update it again someday, but for now, visit us at http://esausinthailand.blogspot.com instead :)

First post from Thailand!

Sneak peek...

We had some family pictures taken with Jon's side of the family a couple of weeks ago.  I finally got the picture CD in the mail last week.  They all turned out beautifully!  I can't wait to show you more!!
But for now, here is one of my favorites...

All growed up...

These pictures are literally 3 months late but I wanted to post them anyway.  Our dear friend Rae took Callie's 2 year photos for us just after her birthday and I think she did a great job.  Enjoy...

 Very typical 'Callie scowls'...

I wonder who she gets her scowl from? :)

Still here...

Sheesh.  Almost a month since I last posted.  Sorry about that.  Life has been full and to be honest, I hate posting without pictures and seeing as our computer hasn't been letting me upload pictures to blogger lately (still trying to figure out why), I haven't felt motivated to write.

But.... I thought I'd just let you know that we are leaving for Thailand VERY soon!  Our flights have been booked and we're set to leave on October 13th!  Just over 2.5 weeks away!

People have been asking how we're feeling about this.  If I'm completely honest with you, I've never felt so torn in all my life.  We're feeling so ready to get going and are excited to get to Thailand.  But there are also a lot of TOUGH goodbyes that are to come first.  And lots of tough transitions ahead of us.
So... we're excited for departure but also grieving all of the incredible family and friends we're leaving behind.  Its actually kind of hard to put into words.

Anyway, we head into Vancouver tomorrow morning to drop off our visa paperwork at the Thai  consulate.  If you think of it, we'd appreciate your prayers.  We don't have a lot of time left to get this all sorted out so we'd covet your prayers for a speedy visa process with little to no hassle (preferably).

And I promise I'll try to have a more 'aesthetically pleasing' blog post next time around :)
