my hubby is growing up

Ok, so the title may read a little funny, but it's a little shout out to my amazing husband who just celebrated his 23rd birthday! Yes, yes we are young. Art just alluded to us being his grandkids:)
David has many pictures to post. Our exciting news is that the interns, aka Nate and Andrew, arrived Monday night. They are great guys and already are plugging away with our students. In their 4 days of being here they've gone night diving and each caught a fish (my husband also caught a tako, octopus), went and played in the lava (ok with the lava sounds better and is probably a bit more accurate), cleaned and painted our storage room, know almost every student's name in our mana akua group, tried lihi moi (sp?) on dried mango, and participated in our young adult Bible Study. Whew, leave it to the Pooles for a quick intro into the Hawaiian culture. Needless to say, I think they slept in to like noon today, which was much needed, especially with the 6hr jet lag...ok in the future we'll be a bit more gracious. We were just really excited to get their feet wet in Hilo, literally!

Fundraisers, dinners with church members, and family night (hot wings and board games) lay ahead for this weekend.

What an answer to prayer.

Signing out,
David and Kelsey
