A look at the lighter note here @ IFM.

Sometimes, things slow down a little here and we all step back and take a little time to refresh and connect.



Aaron and I got to get-away for our anniversary for a night in the DR. So beautiful, refreshing, relaxing!
Our kids enjoyed their stay at Tom and Laurie Mohlers. Laurie helped the girls sew some fun things and Rylan got to go to do some special things with Tom. 

Here, Levi (our newest staff guy) and Austin are ready to leave with a couple haitian boys for an experience-packed time. What a special opportunity for these guys!

We had a going-away party for our dear Hannah with all the IFM ladies. A special time together, but we were sad to see her go.

Tiboutson and Reynald are attaching stairs off our porch to go to our roof. Yes, we have a concrete flat roof that is now turned into a patio! (will show photos on this later)

Mike did a great job with designing the whole thing and we were thankful for all the helpful hands when it was time to lift and line it all up.


Dad and Mom Lavy came to visit this past month. They wanted to see more of Haiti and pamper us a little.  

We got to go visit Clint and Brendas new home and enjoy a yummy brunch together!

After that we headed to Jacmel to the beach. 

Reynald and Rylan sit and talk together by the beach, would of been interesting to hear all their Creole conversation. :)

While here 2 energetic girls jump to capture the best shots.

We enjoyed some of the best fish here. It is seasoned perfectly and served with fried plantains and a spicy salad.

Look at this cute couple! We got to take Aarons Dad up to Pat and Cheryls house and see all the beautiful country there.

Another day we got to go to Hinche to do some fabric shopping and afterwards headed over to see this beautiful waterfall, "Bassin Zinm".
Rylan stands by his haitian friend that came along. Louidi had never been here before and enjoyed taking lots of photos of that day.

Kenslie and Jayla got to bring their friend Dadou.

Haiti is a beautiful place and it it nice to get out to see and visit these neat spots! We all need to be blessed with a little refreshing from time to time. Thanks for praying...... we ask you to continue to pray that our ministry here be effective in our last three months here.
