Airport Picnic

Writing from Kona now; we’re back home! It has been a packed week already, but a great one. Our favorite part about getting back home was meeting Kristin, who has come to Kona to staff the April DTS with us. We’re so glad she is here! You can meet her below.

A fun part of our journey home was our layover in San Francisco. Some of our family came and visited us in the airport during a short layover on our way back to Kona, and so of course we had a fantastic picnic lunch in a corner of the United terminal. Mom, Grandma, and our cousin Melissa along with her litle twins Dylan and Samara, brought us In-N-Out for lunch! This was a special occasion for us, because In-N-Out burger does not exist in our remote chain of Hawaiian Islands. It’s tragic. And my husband has been deprived of In-N-Out for most of his life, because he grew up in England. So we take advantage of any opportunity we have to eat In-N-Out. And John simply destroys an animal-style double-double cheeseburger! My dad also came to see us at SFO, and he treated us to Starbucks and brought us a bag of Hershey’s candies. He knows me too well! We had such a great visit with everyone who came to see us, and felt honored that people would make the trip to San Francisco to come hang out with two weary travelers for a little bit!

Now that we’re back it’s full speed ahead! We’ve got a lot to do to get ready for the April DTS we’re leading. Pray for us when you think of it, and stay tuned for more!
