We are here!!  We are so extremely thankful for the prayers on our behalf.  They worked!!  We had great flights and good travelers.  We felt like people didn't hate us after the flight was over (aka. Walker was pretty good).  We arrived safely and were greeted by Bernard and Denise Masson (the preacher from Villa and his wife).  We got our driver's licenses (me without even going in the building-Will took my American license and passport and they just gave me one without ever seeing me!!)  I haven't tried driving yet but I'm really good at reminding Will to stay on the left side of the road instead of the right!  After getting our licenses we went to our room and unloaded our luggage.  We got a quick tour and popped some popcorn (we were starving and hangry (hungry+angry=hangry).  Then we made a quick trip to the grocery for some essentials including beef patties and rice for dinner and then went to church.  It was so nice to be reunited with everyone and I literally think we met the whole church last night.  So fun!  We got lots of smiles and hugs and got to hear some Antiguan singing from Deon and a great lesson by Victor.  We are super exhausted but thankful to be here.  We slept like logs and are using today to get settled.  I've never seen our children sleep in so many random places.  I'm hoping this will continue throughout the summer and even back home! Here are a pics from the day.
