What we’ve been up to lately –

Friday, our friends from California, the Leslies, came to visit. We met them at the flat they’re renting on the Royal Mile after Bryce finished classes. We hung out and got treated to dinner at Pizza Express that evening. Yum! We also took the younger Leslies out to a pub for Ken to enjoy a Caledonian 80+/ on tap. Saturday, we went to ASDA to stock up on some groceries for our party that evening and met the Leslie clan at the Edinburgh Castle for another meal, more pictures and more fun time together. That evening we had all our friends over here to a party to meet our cool friends. Lots of food, drinks, fun and no sleep (we finally got to bed at 4.30 am)! Sunday, the Leslies joined us at church and we grabbed a jacket potato after church. Planning on going to do tourist things with them, we bailed after finally sitting down to have tea at our flat - we were exhausted. So we cleaned up from the night before, and took a nap; we also skipped evening church - we were just too tired. Today seems much better already. The Leslies are up in the Highlands for the next few days and so we’ll be madly trying to get work done while they’re away! You can see all the pictures that Ken and Gillian are taking here.

*P.S. Sorry for the lack of depth in our posts as of late; I think it’s all we can do to get our work done (just in the nick of time), have clean dishes so we can eat, and try to get enough sleep as deadlines approach. Thank you for your prayers! We’ll be back in form soon. We look forward to Easter and celebrating the resurrection of our Saviour Jesus Christ on Sunday. May your week be filled with the remembrance of Christ’s passion, the sombreness of his death and the joy present in His resurrection.
