The biggest news!!!

I wanted to post a few pictures we took of our family on the weekend and a few pictures I tried to take of the boy, and as you can imagine a 2 year old does not sit still for pictures, but I think I got some cute ones. I wished he would sit and do what I say when taking pictures.
And the other big news I wanted to share, although some of you already know is that my visa was approved.
Last Friday we called the U.S consulate and they told Mark over the phone that it was approved and that we needed to call on Monday to make an appointment. So Mark decided to go to the U.S consulate instead of calling because they don't answer the phone until 2pm if they answer it at all. And while there the lady at the reception asked him if he had my passport and Mark didn't understand why she would need my passport. We really thought that I was gonna have another interview and that I needed it to give them more information. We thought that the interview was probably gonna be in a month or so. But when Mark asked why, she said if you bring the passport in the morning it will be ready in the afternoon. So because the consulate was gonna be closed today Mark is going tomorrow and in the afternoon it will be ready with a seal on it and after that I can go back to the U.S whenever I want to.
I don't want to disappoint anyone but we are not leaving very soon yet, well at least we don't know yet. We have things we need to do before we go. We have to sell our car and I need to say good bye to family. Like many of you know last year I found my dad and I met a brother and a sister I did not know they existed. I also have my brother in Copán (my home town) and now that I will be gone he is going to be the only close family member of my family in Honduras. So I need to spend some time with him before I go and of course we also have friends that we need to say good bye to. We will keep you updated when we decide to go back so we can see our family and friends.
I also wanted to thank all of you who prayed for us that we may go back to the U.S and that we would be protected. We appreciate your faith and your prayers and your fasting.
And here are some pictures, of our family, but especially from our cute and handsome little boy.
Enjoy!!!!

He knew I was taking pictures so he didn't stop moving.
