At the end of March I was so blessed to be able to fly home for my sister Morgan's wedding in Portland, Oregon. I had a 9 hour layover in Seoul, S. Korea and had the wonderful opportunity to meet one of Morgan and Byoung's friends (Stella) who took me on a fun adventure around the city and treated me to a traditional Korean meal. What an amazing start to a fantastic trip. 


A popular place to visit in Seoul 


My new friend Stella and I (It was definitely colder than Thailand!) She was such a blessing to me!


Seeing the sights.


Back at the airport, hangin with my homies. (The Inchanon airport is amazing- you don't even need to leave immigration to learn about and experience the culture! Pretty cool!)


Two of my best friends in the world treated me to an amazing day in Monterey. 


The fam back in action!! It meant so much that I got to spend time with these guys! I just wish Michael could have been with us πŸ™ We definitely missed him!!


Celebrating my sister Morgan and my new brother-in-law Byoung's marraige! Such an honor to be a part of their special day (and might I add again…such a blessing to be able to come! All the way from Thailand!)


My little sister πŸ™‚ Such a beautiful woman! So much love for her. 


The Hock kids looking good as usual. I loved being able to catch up with them…I love being in Thailand, but its hard to miss out on things with them when I'm so far away. Catching up is so much better in person!!!


The beautiful bride. 


After the wedding, I returned to California and was able to spend some time with my Dad, Teri, and the Seatons!! My Dad took several days off work and we went on some adventures in wine country. 


Enjoying Napa Valley with my dad and Teri! What a beautiful day over there with great company πŸ™‚

Overall..my short trip back to the USA was a HUGE blessing. One blessing after another kept flowing my way and I am so grateful for all the love that was shown to me πŸ™‚ What amazing family and friends I have!

It didn't work out to have my foot surgery when I was back this time, but I am praying about it and am thinking I may get it done this summer instead. Would love prayers for this! 

Its good to be back in Thailand and it continues to remain clear that this is where I am supposed to be in this season. I will be posting some ministry updates soon and filling in some gaps from the last few months (woops! I haven't posted a blog in so long!!!)

Thank you for all the support, prayers, encouragement, and love!
