We got here all in one piece and with all our luggage. We were dreading travel with two babies and ALL that luggage we had. When we got to the Orlando airport, we got lots of looks. I wasn't sure we were going to make it through security. We finally did, with everyone along the way asking why in the world we had so much carry-on baggage. When we arrived at the gate, the plane had already been loading and we barely had time to sit before takeoff after making like 6 trips back to the front of the plane to get all the bags. God was with us and provided us great flight attendants to help. One in particular was a God send-literally, because we had prayed for help. She helped us with our bags and got us to the next gate, and even called ahead to let them know we would need help when we arrived at the gate. Thanks Deedy! When we got to Costa Rica, there was a large bus waiting to take all of us missionaries to our homes. To our pleasant surprise, we were allowed the opportunity to be taken home by our Language school coordinator's husband in their personal van; this helped us get home much sooner. We had so many more blessing along the way-even no baggage check or other problems through customs. Oh, yeah the biggie was that the girls had absolutely no problems with their ears. All this to say that God truly answered prayers. I'll post a few pics now and more to come later. The girls turn 1 YEAR OLD today!!! Can you believe it? We are having a little get-together tomorrow to celebrate. We'll post again after that. Thanks so much for all your encouragement and prayers.

leavin on a jet plane...
Today is the day. Please rememeber to pray for us and our families today as we head off to Costa Rica. Pray for the girls to travel and adjust well and for everything to go smoothly as we check in at the airport (we have tons of luggage so pray for mercies from the airline). We cannot express enough how important your prayers are to us. Next time we post we hope to be in Costa Rica.
~All because of JESUS,
Ted, Kerri, Taylor and Kamryn
one more thing... please pray for the girls' ears. We've been battling ear infections and the flight can be rough for them. Pray that God will heal their little ears. :)
