I know our blog is seriously deficient in updates. I apologize. We have made it to the United States for our 6 month stateside time!!! We hit the ground running !!
We arrived on December 20th and simply had hopes that we might kick jet lag enough to be awake for the celebration of our Lord's birth. We did that and had a great celebration both in Oklahoma and Texas with our family.
We got to celebrate Jesus's birthday by singing praises to Him in ENGLISH !! Although He is more than worthy to be celebrated in any language, it was such a treat for us to worship Him in our heart language.
Worshipping Jesus !!!!
Birthday Celebrations for Jesus
eatin' good!!!!

trying out Arin's new Easy Bake Oven !!!!
Then we headed to Texas to see the Hesskew side of the fam!!! It was such a sweet reunion since we hadn't seen any of them for almost 3 years.
Spending time with our dog, Meg.......
Once we returned to Oklahoma, we had a few days to move and settle into the mission house before we headed to Virginia for a Stateside conference for a week.
Then we finally have found a little bit of a routine. We are adjusting back to the American culture, trying to get used to stop signs, big parking spaces, customer service, and southern hospitality !!! The kids and I are busy working through their Polish school books.
The beginnings of homeschool in the mission house......
We've also enjoyed diving into American sports, like Upward Basketball !!!
