Kate Update

Yay: We've heard from Kate!

Boo: We missed the phone call.

She also briefly emailed and posted to Facebook, so we know:

1. She's safely there.
2. She's tired.
3. She figured out how to buy a phone card.
4. She sounds happy.
5. She's met interesting people in the Peace Corps.

We're so glad to get this little bit of news!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I have to brag on My Friend Wendy. Boy is she ever nice to me! Look what she sent to make my day brighter last week when I was down in the dumps with Kate's departure.


I never had an Edible Arrangement before, and it was just delicious! We gobbled it up. See those white things in there? They are chocolate dipped bananas. At first I thought they were marshmallows, so Hannah ate the first one. She hates bananas, but didn't say anything about it (it's been a long time since she ate one). Later, when I ate one (I hate marshmallows, but love chocolate), I was happy to discover it was a banana. We laughed about that, and Hannah even ate some more (but she's still not willing to try a plain banana again). They were so GOOD!! Just like My Friend--so good!
