In Memory

September 11, 2023September 9, 2023 / battsabroad / Leave a comment

Today, we remember the events of 11 September 2001 and the lives lost that day. I remember driving to school in eighth grade, hearing about it on the radio, and asking my mom what was happening. She explained as best she could at 7:00am, mere hours after the attack took place in New York. But … Continue reading In Memory

We're frantically running around our apartment packing and cleaning today. Tomorrow at 5:00am, we depart on our 5-week Alaskan adventure. Woohoo! As we think about the month of July, though, here are some things we want to remember: We spent lots of time outside in the town square by our apartment, including playing ping pong … Continue reading July 2023 Review

Camping in Saint-Raymond

Last Monday morning, we left for a couple days of camping in Saint-Raymond, about an hour northwest of Quebec City! When we reserved the site for this trip a few weeks ago, we had no idea that our two-night trip would take place during massive, massive rainstorms. Oops. The day before we left, I got … Continue reading Camping in Saint-Raymond

Yesterday, we celebrated and remembered the fathers (and father figures!) in our lives. What a blessing to be surrounded by men who love the Lord and love others. Dad, you have always encouraged me to do my best (even in summer sports, when I always got hit by the ball) and cheered for me in … Continue reading Father’s Day 2023

Well. The last week has a been a real doozy! In 2021, our "word of the year" was pivot, and we may have to adopt that word again for 2023.

My parents came for Christmas!!!! They flew in late on the 19th, after having every single flight delayed on their way here from Oregon. And because we'd been able to keep their visit a surprise from the kids, they woke up early and were sitting on the couch when our kids stumbled out of bed … Continue reading Christmas 2022 Recap

Last weekend’s campout with @mcd.quebec ended with a trip to Urgence for Hudson, who broke his wrist falling off a slide. Details are on our blog: battsabroad.com We are at ABWE’s ME conference and got to enjoy a refreshing boat tour of the inner harbor with the Every Ethné team. Today is Melissa’s birthday! First of many many more in Québec City! It’s the beginning of the weekend and we shared a few highlights (trips to the library, superhero school days, and melted snow to name a some) from the week on our blog. After a couple weeks of homeschooling all the kiddos, it’s going… really well! We shared some highlights and thoughts on our blog about it. Thank you for your prayers in this transition! Every once in a while, we’ll share a « Day in the Life » post on our blog, showing what a typical day might look like for us. Today, was a glimpse of our Mondays. These pictures sum up how we feel about being in PA at @abwe_intl for a week. 😄😍🥳 Not pictured: Hudson not sleeping last night; emotional fatigue from discussing the last five years; searching for rental car keys for 45 minutes; and lots of congestion and sneezing. Content. Over three weeks ago, after her dental surgery, Ruth stopped talking. RUTH UPDATE:
