Passports and Visas, Oh My!!

Well, a couple of days ago, Bryce and I just decided that we finally need to take that trip to Brasil that we are always saying we'll do, but don't. Within the last couple of days we've looked into airports, visas, hotels, transportation, restaurants, old mission spots, and of course the places that he never got to see before. And the best part about it, is we will be leaving next month. I can't believe we are finally going, and Bryce especially, is on cloud nine with having the thought of visiting the place that he loved so much. To this day, many years later, he seriously lights up when he talks about the mission, I really love that about him. He loved the people, the place and the food. We honestly can't walk into a grocery store without him holding up a piece of fruit and saying, "this is nothing compared to the avocados in Brasil, they are this big in Brasil." And most of you that know Bryce can picture his eyes growing the size of that avocado as he's explaining it. In a whole, it's quite overwhelming, I've never planned anything like this before, especially in a foreign country. We are so blessed that we are able to do this right now in our lives, I can't wait to go with Bryce and share what I'm sure will be very spiritual moments in the places that he grew so much. Brasil, ready or not, here we come!! (well,only if we can get our visas in time)

That is awesome! Miles always says he won't take me to Honduras, where he served. He says it is too dirty and scary. But he would take me to Roatan, Honduras which was not in his mission but a more touristy party. Have so much fun!
