Above L: Elianna shielding her eyes from the morning sun as we head to the residency permit offices in the town of Eger. Above R: This car was possibly smaller than my big toe nail.

Below: Why so happy? Because we received TWO-YEAR residency permits for each member of our family today! That means we don't have to go through the abundant paperwork and traveling from office to office for another two years! We praise God for how well the process went and that we were able to get two year permits (could have been much less). Thank all of you for your prayers.





Above: Our balcony isn't too large, so our sand box is on the small side. That doesn't stop Elianna from taking full advantage of the cool gritty texture on her bare feet. Atleast she has grown out of tasting sand.



Above: Ben having fun with his toy handcuffs on our balcony. Today he had a clear view of 'lomtalánitás'–what's that you ask? Well, every year, we are allowed to toss anything we want into big piles on the street. After a day of your junk being exposed to the public and possibly picked up for further use, trash trucks come in the dozens and dispose everything. Don't you wish you had that in the US!



Above: Stop Thief! Oh, that's only Allen. Today, he had to hurdle a fence to get into our friend's house (who was at the airport) to retreive keys hidden in a safe place. We picked up some things for our teammate Brenda which are being stored at this house and returned home without being questioned by the police. However, Allen did get very strange looks from the neighbors.
