Heading home....

We've come to the end of our time in Thailand....We have had a some great last days with our team here. We were able to go to a beach for our last 3 days and have some time to relax as a team and debrief our time here together. It has been good to share together all that we have learned and process how we will apply those things as we go back home. We all feel a mixture of excitement about returning home to our friends and family and a sadness about leaving this beautiful country. Please pray for us if you think of us....we have long travels getting home (we leave in about 24 hours and it will take us about 27 hours to get home...) and as we transition to life back at home.
Thanks for all your prayers.
love, the rupps
ps. thanks for all the comments and birthday wishes :)

hey sweet amanda,
i'm glad that your time in thailand was once again so special and transforming. seeing you there, and seeing zara there, truly makes my heart yearn to be there once again. and to be able to introduce river (and asher, too) to such a beautiful place, and so many precious people. it's amazing to see our old friends, like honey and one, growing into such beautiful women. i only wish i could be there with you, to give you a birthday hug (a little late) and see those sweet old friends who we haven't (and never will) forgotten about. by the way, your pictures are awesome, and really give us a sense of seeing your experience. love you, and try to get a little shut eye on the plane. i'll pray for zara to sleep a lot! =)
