The Last 7 Months


Her second birthday with us, she is four now.  Happy birthday Mekdes!
We've been kind of busy these last few months...then again, looking at some of your blogs I think we could fit twice as many activities in our day.                        The following pictures is just a small peek into some of those events.  With an obvious emphasis in our mission trip to Ethiopia.  Since words don't seem to flow easily from my brain to my typing fingers and knowing that a picture is worth a thousand words...enjoy this long speech.


Another great cook at home.


Carlito & Mekdes love spending time with their best friends.





In November 2011 We had the blessing of participating in a Christian Medical Mission with "Hand of Hope" to Ethiopia. As much as I could tell you about it and even showing you the other 900 pictures from that trip that I didn't upload, I still wouldn't be able to convey the feeling of that experience. Most of my dental team (four total) came on this trip.

My wife and I doing a small dental surgery.

Ethiopia Dental Team!!

This girl stole my heart...miss her!


Well, is midnight as I type this and I'm too sleepy to find the way to rotate these pictures. (If you know the way to do it here please let me know)

Having fun with drugs!




And her name is Lem Lem

 Heart-breaking to see these malnourished girls...but happy to see the change after a few hours of them being in the feeding program (sorry no "after" pic)


Praising Jesus!!!



Can we take her home??

Don't look for Waldo!



One of the two births that happen during that time.



Gotta love those faces!!!

We're still here!!



To all our readers, we are still here!  I don't have a valid reason or excuse for having been away from the Blog World for all this time, I know ALL of my followers (all six of you) have been waiting for the new post from the Lopez Family!  So this is only to warn you that I'll be updating my blog within a couple of days from this post.

I hope you have had a great and blessed time for the last few months!

A person’s wisdom yields patience;
it is to one’s glory to overlook an offense.
