Ben is heading back over the pond

Ben just left for a 9 day trip back to the States. He's going to Washington DC for 2 back-to-back theological conferences. He'll have the opportunity to meet up with some old friends while he's there.

Now the downside...besides the fact that I will be on my own with the parenting for the next week...is that for the last few days he has been talking about all the American places that he plans to eat at. Not that American food in and of itself wouldn't be treat enough, but it's that we never eat out over here. It is just way too expensive. A dinner out at Pizza Hut for the 4 of us would run about $50. So, if anyone can figure out a way to ship a Chipotle burrito this way, I'd be very appreciative. :)

Bummer that Ben get's to experience American food without you all! Like you - I would love for someone to bring a Chipotle burrito to us, as we don't have one here either! Love you - pray that the next 9 days go smoothly for you and the boys, and safe travels for Ben.
