Back from Guatemala, Gearing up for Trinidad

This week has been just CRAZY getting caught up on paperwork from being away for a month, and getting ready for our missions trip to Trinidad.
Yesterday we had a dance practice for the trip. Insert cringe here. It's been a full year since the last time we did a choreographed dance for a trip, and saying I'm a bit rusty is putting it nicely and saying I'm a bit sore today is sad but true.
Sandra and I had quite the laugh at how our bones were cracking every time we had to bend our knees. We sounded like a Kellogg's Rice Crispy commercial.
Despite all that, we managed to learn a full minute of the dance... only four more to go. Monday we'll hit it again, and with only 16 days until we leave, we've got our work cut out for us! ;)
Nevertheless, the dance is looking good! Note to self - drink more milk this week.
We are excited for what God has in store for Trinidad, for the VBS and the youth conference. We're all being stretched - not that being stretched is anything new lol - and having a great time together preparing. We're thinking we'll test the dance out on other travelers waiting in the Miami Airport - my only stipulation is that the music must be quite enough to keep us out of trouble and loud enough to cover the snap crackle pop of our knees.
Well that concludes today's post.
Happy Canada Day!
