Well, these past few days have been pretty exciting around here. Monday morning we woke up early to catch a 6:45 flight to take us to see the Himalayan mountains. It was incredible! The mountain tops were all above the clouds, and snow covered everything. You can really see God's hands at work on these peaks. Mt. Everest was pretty cool too. I got to see it from the cockpit of the plane! This is a video I took of it. The sound is not great, because the plane was loud, but it looks cool. We kinda imagine Mt. Everest as this one lone peak that kinda stands alone. But it's really more like, just the highest peak of a bunch of other really tall peaks. But it's still freakin awesome!
Yesterday we visited one of the churches here in Kathmandu, and watched a Nepali folk dance competition put on by the kids of the area. They were really cool dances, and I learned a lot. Today I will be going with Laura to the music school for the first time...I may pick up a trumpet, we'll see.
THings I saw recently...
-Peter, who works for the church, changed a flat tire on the van we were riding in, in less than 5 minutes! Move over NASCAR!
-Later on, Peter took a minivan down a dirt road under construction, that I'd be hard pressed to take my jeep down. They drive cars here til the wheels fall off...literally.
I think that's all for now...be posting soon!

Hey sweetheart! Your videos are great! I am so thrilled that you and Laura are getting to see all the wonderful things in Nepal. I think you just might like Nepal as much as you do India and Colima. Everyone is fine here. I love you and keep posting on your blog it's great.
