Yesterday, Akihiro's parents bid on a guesthouse in Yamanashi and won! We have lots of ideas as to how to use this blessing and are praying that God will direct us in this matter! We won't be able to go in it until April, but we did visit the outside and it looks really nice! It is about 20 minutes from Shioda church and maybe about the same to Akihiro's work.
We are looking forward to some company this weekend--Akihiro's grandma and 3 cousins are coming for supper Saturday night and then we will have some church brothers here overnight Saturday night through Monday night, so I am busy cooking and cleaning! The blog might be quiet for the next few days!
