We left my computer in Asia so these pictures are mostly from J's phone or from friends in Indonesia. (Except the Christmas service ones. I took those.)

December and January were really difficult months for our family. There's not much to say. But I know that you've been remembering us and thought you might want a little glimpse of our life these last 2 months.

First is S, hanging around our apartment complex. She's started climbing trees with a little help from her dad.

Christmas shopping.

We're not sure if laws changed recently or if they've just decided to start enforcing laws that were already in place, but we are no longer able to use J's motorbike as our family's sole form of transportation. We found this fun electric scooter second-hand for a good price. I LOVE having transportation besides walking and the city bus. It has made life much simpler for me. Please continue to remember our family's safety as we get around our city.

B & I in Doha, Qatar on the long trip from Indonesia to AZ (we were about to board the plane for a 17.5 hour fight - the LONGEST flight any of us have ever taken. One I hope to never repeat!)
