Fall walk

Greg took the girls on a walk so I could have some "me" time. Mondays are my days to get things done around the house and catch up on my bible study homework. Thanks Greg! You are a great daddy :)

Walk in the forest

Reminiscing in Budapest

We had just landed Thursday afternoon from our 2 month stay in the States and within 24 hours I was on a train to Budapest for an Effective Communication Workshop organized by YWAM. Delirious from 4 nights of sleeplessness I stumbled around the city, along the Danube River, and among the many tourists enjoying the unique draw of the city. I couldn't help but think back on my first experience with the magnetism of Budapest. Eleven years ago, unbeknowing to me, this Hungarian capital captivated me and lured me from my discontentment and ignorance in Alabama. God used this enchanting city to expand my worldview and experience a bit more of his vastness. Less than a year and a half later I was back and within five years I had met my love and gotten engaged overlooking the Chain Bridge.

As I was stumbling around along the banks of the Danube Saturday, I couldn't help but find memories everywhere I looked. As I passed the Parliament building I remembered the moment I realized that I truly loved Greg as we were standing there together some six years ago. It was also in Budapest that I felt a true calling from the LORD that one day I'd live and serve in Central Europe. I'm thankful for this city and for the significance it's played in my life. It has truly been an unforgettable place that will continue to call back to her.

Birmingham

We've had so much fun and downtime since we've been in the States. Abigail and Hannah are now speaking English and I'm so proud of them! Their vocabulary has taken off! The time they've had with their cousins has been priceless and we can't get enough of running around barefoot in the backyard! There is less than two weeks left before we pack up and head to Poland. So we're squeezing in as much as we can until we step onto the plane. We'll post pictures as soon as we can hook up our camera to some one's computer.

Two weeks today...

... and we'll be on a plane headed for sweet home Alabama. We're so excited to see you and visit friends and family. Practically speaking we need a few things while we are in the States. If you have any of the following you'd like to lend to us please let me know at skrobarfam@gmail.com.

• Mobile phone
• Car seats for a 2 yr. old and 3 1/2 yr. old
• A car

And if you'd like to help us send back our suitcases full of loot which we can't get in Poland then please take a look at the list on the left-hand side of this blog for things we'd love to take back with us. For a look at ministry needs then go to our ministry blog. Thanks and see you soon!

Croatian Vacation Pics

From June 26th to July 6th we spent time in
Medulin, Croatia with another family. We
shared a house with a wonderful yard and
grill with only about half a mile walk to the
beach. We had lovely hot weather with only
one afternoon of rain! The girls had a blast
spending ALL their waking hours outside play-
ing with the other children and mosquitoes :) Not
far was the city of Pula with an amazing colosseum
built by the Romans. It was wonderful downtime
for us away from Poland and spending precious
time as a family with our sweet girls and Polish
friends. Thank you God!
