Hawaiian Summer & Return to Korea

July 2010 Update

After PFO, we took a ridiculous route back to Hawaii! We flew from Memphis to Detroit to Seoul to Honolulu. As you can imagine, we were quite exhausted when we finally reached the Aloha State--but beautiful weather, eager family members, and a few weeks of rest awaited us.

While staying on Oahu, Mark was able to video a wedding with Malia's brothers and concentrate more on his classes. We were also thrilled to spend many days in the sand and ocean water. (Mika loves playing at the beach!)

At the end of the month, we packed up and flew west back to Seoul. (This was Mika's last flight as a lap child.) Our new apartment awaited us there, and we are excited and grateful for how it better accommodates our young family! Hot weather also welcomed us back!

Mark's school year begins soon, and we are excited about this upcoming semester in Korea.

Praises & Prayer Requests:
~We are so thankful for our time in Hawaii!
~Our apartment in Seoul is so much better for us!
~We begin coaching varsity volleyball together in August. Please pray that we use our influence as coaches to motivate our team toward better decisions and ultimately toward a growing relationship with Christ.
~Please pray for Mark as he takes on twice as many students as last year in his computer classes.
