I am always so inspired by your family, always praying God will place it on your hearts to visit the PNW, Seattle in particular, one of theses days. <br /><br />I am hoping you will share another election post with your readers.

My husband was born in a Mennonite colony in Paraguay with roots in Canada, so I'm sure that we're related to most of the Mennonites you met there.

Well let me yell ya, there's a place a bit north that is Mexico's identical twin! IDAHO! Yesireebob! Every single landscape, sunset and road pic could have been taken right here in the Treasure Valley.:)<br /> We also have a mighty big Hispanic population to boot!(So the food pics are like ours too). Spanish is the second language here after of course, good ol' American Redneck!

I didn't know I was friends with so many lawbreakers...<br />On a more serious note, I'm so glad that all of our prayers for all of you were answered. You all did great things for Jesus and helped lead people to Him and you came home safely. God is good, no matter what. <br />I loved the pic of Allison showing people her violin skills. I wasn't surprised you found baby Bella to take care of either. God knows how to use our skills better than we do.<br />Just so you know, you can use me as a guinea pig on any new Mexican food recipes (especially if they involved jalapeños). Have any of you every tried using red chili powder with chocolate?...pretty awesome.(hint to Allison) I'm proving Carson's foodie label true now.<br />Lastly, I liked the "Trump wall", Chels. Quite fitting. <br /><br />Matt<br /><br />PS: What do I get for keeping quiet and not calling Customs and Border Patrol? bigredmatt1011https://www.blogger.com/profile/01420615303020313398noreply@blogger.com
