New friends and family
I had the pleasure of speaking at First Baptist Church of Cherryville, NC. I was able to reacquaint myself with some of my relatives and my friends who I met in Kenya. Last year when I was in Kenya I was so blessed to meet the ladies from my home state. What a blessing that was! It was a pleasure to be able to share with their church about the people and life in Mozambique.

One of my favorite places to eat is The Rainforest Cafe. They are located in different places in the US and a few are overseas. While in Texas I had the opportunity to go to the one in San Antonio. It was a fun place, it is set up like a rainforest on the inside and the animals even go "off" and make animal noise every so often.

Carriage and trolley rides
Two things we were able to enjoy in San Antonio was a horse drawn carriage ride through the city and a trolley ride. Both of these were a great time to give our feet a rest and to be able to enjoy the city without having to navigate our way through the city. We could just sit back and enjoy the ride.
Tower of the Americas
A beautiful sight in San Antonio is the Tower of Americas. It gives you a great view of the city and surrounding areas. At the top of the tower is a revolving restaurant. I along with the other ladies were able to enjoy a really nice meal with a beautiful view. The restaurant revolves once every hour. We were able to enjoy a full revolution of the restaurant as we enjoyed our steak and dessert.
Women of Faith Conference
One of the things I have been able to do in February is attend the National Women of Faith Conference in San Antonio, Texas. As I looked around at the 20,000 plus ladies in attendance I was reminded of how much I had missed that fellowship and worship together with other ladies. It was such a sweet time of fellowship, inspiration, renewal and of course making the most of being in San Antonio.
Super Bowl
To answer the quesiton alot of you have had for me. Yes I did get to enjoy the Super Bowl. I was able to watch in its entirety with commercials and all. It was nice to be able to watch it on the day that it actually aired and to not have to wait for the taped version to arrive in the mail from someone in the states who mailed it to me in Mozambique. I took in every minute of the game enjoying the food, commercials and good company.

What have I been doing?

I'm sure some of you have been wondering how I'm doing in the United States. I must say that it has been an adjustment time even though I was coming home to my home culture. I was given good advice when I was reminded that I had patience with the African culture when I was first learning about it. Now I need to have patience with the American culture as I get reacclimated to it once again.
I did have tooth surgery the other week. It turned out to be more intensive than what I expected, hence the bruise/yellow spot on my jaw.
I am still enjoying being cold and wearing cold weather clothes. I think I am definitely in the minority on that one based on what other people have said!
If you know me, you know that I am enjoying watching ACC basketball and the football playoff games. It is so nice to be able to watch a game almost every night. I could easily get spoiled with that.
As I have been looking back on these 3 past years in Mozambique I am continually reminded about how faithful God is and how blessed I am. I pray that as I share about Mozambique others will see the needs there and pray for the people and share with them in whatever way they can.
I will be traveling soon to different areas to share about the work in Mozambique. I hope to see you soon!
