http://yakityyakparkers.blogspot.com/2012/12/november-2012.html
Sunday, December 30. I have been terrible about keeping up with this blog. I really have good intentions and then time just gets away from me. Also, with facebook and instagram, it is often just easier to post things there. Anyway, I do still want to keep up with this blog so here is another attempt: a photo update from November. Volunteers from our home church! They went to a remote mountain area with Ryan. They were truly a blessing to us! I love my Gracie! Keane is such a sweet boy! Find me on Facebook.

Yakity Yak the Parkers Talk Back: January 2011

Saturday, January 1. Christmas in Nepal 2010. As much as I long for "home" in America so much during the holiday time I try to remember these things and God fills me with such peace and joy and I am so thankful for that. It was precious. Afterwards, the kids all came inside and I had some hot chocolate and some small desserts for them. They also had a blast playing with Keane and Gracie. When we came home we started a new family tradition of giving the kids (and ourselves) some new Christmas pajamas!
