September - November 2017

Our visit to the Americas (Nicaragua, Columbus, Chicago & Memphis)

Andy started off the journey with a side trip to Nicaragua for a week of EMI directors' meetings.
It was so sweet to visit our chrch, friends, supporters and old neighborhood:) in Memphis, TN.
We had the privilege of speaking to alumni and students at our alma mater, ONU.
Upon our arrival in Chicago... hugs from Andy's parents.

Marion's highlight of her trip... riding a pony at the county fair.

Spoorthi had more fun than it looks:)

An amazing stop on our drive from Columbus, OH to Memphis, TN... a full scale replica of the ARK!

Carousel ride at the Brookfield Zoo in Chicago.

2 cute tigers for Halloween. Spoorthi kept asking "why?!why?!" excitedly when people would hand her candy.

They did not love scooping out the pumpkins

Spending some time along the Mississippi River on our way out of Memphis

Some of our amazing kid friends in Memphis at our favourite park.

We loved staying at Larry's in Memphis, TN

It was so special to see fall colours!


The trip began with high temps and playing in the sprinkler... it ended in winter coats and hats!
