Myanmar Has Our Hearts

Myanmar was such a super, special place to live. Trevor and I miss it all the time. We are just so thankful that God allowed us two years there. Trevor and I decided to visit Myanmar during our Chinese New Year holiday. It is not too hot there at this time of year, and we figured Jackson needed some more culture in his little life. So, we decided to do it and we invited Trevor's mother to come with us. Thankfully she agreed, and we had an amazing trip.

We stuck around the captial called Yangon. During the mornings, Trevor and his mother visited local orphanidges to offer some love and encouragement, while Jackson and I hung out at the hotel packing in some good bonding/napping time. In the afternoons the four of us would have adventures shopping, swimming and eating. It was SO Great!!!! Here are some photos!!

Grandma brought this specail suit for Jackson so that he would not get a sunburn.
This is Jackson playing in paper scraps from the paper hearts that Trevor and his mom passed out at the orphanidges.
