Enjoying the Ballou Folks

Saturday morning Trey & I left our house at 7 a.m. to head to the airport to pick up my Mom & Dad.  It was truly surreal experience to pick up my parents from the crazy Port-au-Prince airport and introduce them to our new home!  I was so excited to see them I could not quite control my emotions.  When my emotions go crazy, tears are an immediate result.  But, I promise they were good tears!

Over the past few days we have cleaned out clothing depots, attended Haitian church, rode through mountain trails, learned new trades, laughed and met new people, and still have more to come!  We will be leaving EARLY tomorrow morning to travel to Baptist Haiti Mission's camp property for some snorkeling and fun in the sun for the day.

A highlight from their stay so far would have to be discovering all the many things they are surprised by here in Haiti.  It is so much fun to hear dad "Ooo and Ahh" over the amazing mountains views while Mom squeals "Slow down!" the entire ride.  It delights my heart to see my parents giving thumbs up and smiles to try communicate with the workers with BHM.  Today one of our workers addressed my mother as Momma Madam Trey :)  LOVE IT!

My blogging has been put on stand by because I simply do not want to miss one minute with the parents!  Keep checking back for posts I will have some more with pictures ASAP!
