they're back

The Peru team made it back safely last night. Their flight was delayed 4 hours, but they are here safe and sound. Matt showed us some pretty cool pictures that he took. He did not eat anything gross this time but here are a few of the "stupid" things he did while there (stupid according to my mom):
*wore an anaconda necklace (he actually paid $3 to wrap a giant snake around his neck)
*went on a plane ride into the jungle and almost had to play Survivor because the pilot came really close to not making it back to the plane before sunset (I would've liked a picture of the pilot and Matt snuggling under the mosquito net tee hee)
*went swimming in the piranha filled lake and actually felt them nipping at his legs

Honestly, I think these things were pretty cool, and it would've been awesome to experience them with him. There's always next time....

He had lots of funny stories to tell. I will post a couple of pictures when we get them downloaded. Thanks for your prayers.

We were praying for all of you when we were in VA. Can't wait to hear all about your trip at church!
