Seven of us traveled from our church to Masachapa, Nicaragua for a missions conference. Trent spoke to the missionaries while the rest of us put on a kids program for the missionary kids.
It was Hudson & Anna Kate's first time out of the country. Anna Kate was apprehensive.
But she loved playing Uno and other games on the plane with Ms. Kristin & Mom.
Hudson's first glance at the Pacific Ocean (it was easy to see on the other side of the pool). The kids commented how different it was from "our beach" with bigger waves & darker sand.

We had a "Fruit of the Spirit" party weekend for the kids. We had about 20 kids 11 and under and had a blast!
We had free time in the afternoons and hung out in the pool with several others, complete with cannonballs (Anna Kate's first!), flips, water volleyball, and underwater tea parties.
Anna Kate started swimming! She jumped off the side of the pool, under water and would swim to the side. And do it again and again. :)
Since we don't have a tv, this is a real treat. They loved watching in Spanish.
