We celebrated Christmas with the girls by taking them to the beach for a couple of hours. It was beautiful & a lot of fun! Now we are having lots of fun celebrating with the rest of our family.

We Are Still Here!
We've been in California for three weeks now. The time is going so quickly! We are just loving all the time with our families and trying to soak up every minute of being together. We've also been busy applying for visas, getting a shipment ready to send to Cameroon and taking care of lots other small things that we could not do while we were out of the country. Since many of the people who read our blog regularly are the people we are with right now, we probably won't be blogging quite as often until our departure for Africa the first week of January. Here are some pictures of what we've been doing!
Anna has just about mastered the stairs!
Loving time outside with Grandma.
Playing at Grandma & Grandpa's house (where we are staying right now)
Boxes of things to ship to Cameroon.
Getting to know Sam & Zoe!
Helping Grandma in the kitchen.
LOVING winter in CA (cool but not cold!).
Thanksgiving. Lots of yummy food and lots of amazing people.
COUSINS! We love being with our cousins!
And more family! Anna was a happy camper with her Mommy & Mimi.

One more week
We are down to our last week in France. We are saying lots of good byes, visiting some special places one last time and doing LOTS of sorting & packing. It feels quite strange for us to be leaving what feels like "home" to go "home" to then move on to a new "home." We are continually reminded of our eternal home during this process and are thankful for God's goodness each step of the way. And of course we are just thrilled to be seeing so many people that we love very soon!
We love Fall in Chambery

Visit from Mimi & Pa
We had a really fun & special visit from my (Jamie) parents! It feels lonely here without them even though we know we get to be with all of our family in just one more week.
