Well no one told me I'd be crying randomly for 3 weeks after I went on the trek. Every time I see a person that helped me pull my handcart or a person that was an "angel," I lose it. It was so hard and so good. It was so worth it because of the kids in my family. They obviously wouldn't have bonded as a family so quickly if we hadn't have gone through really really hard things. It was way harder than I could've ever thought and better too. We had a great time, and are having our first official family reunion Friday. We went to Toy Story 3 with our family the week after we got back. Here's the pics.
My nephew, that is in Chile on his mission, was introduced to these tiny coconut-like nuts called coquitos. Aren't they cute! I think they would be divine dipped in chocolate! (the inside, that is) Tick, tock. This Sunday is Devin's farewell. Our family's life will change forever...for the better of course.
