Hello? Are you still there?

It has been over a year since this blog has been updated. I would be surprised if anybody still follows it. If you are reading this now... Wow! Way to go :)

I think it is about time for a Woodbull update. But where to begin. I left off without so much as a goodbye, so why don't we start from where we left off?


Starting from where we left off would bring us to May 5th, 2009. The last time all 10 Woodbulls were together. Sad? Very! May 5th was spent at Gold Reef City (a South African amusement park). It was loads of fun and even when it began to pour down rain, it just made it all the more memorable. After a fun day together we went to a pizza place to share one last meal together. We ate, laughed, shared memories and then came the goodbyes. Oh! One thing that I personally will never get used to (even though I've had to do it so many times) is saying goodbye. It was a tearful goodbye and lots of hugs. We prayed together as Woodbulls and then waved farewell until God brought us back together again.

Let's zoom forward to March 20th, 2010. We'd been separated for almost a year. Separated in three different directions. The Woods are still in Mozambique. Dot and Hannah are in Georgia at Covenant College. And the other Bulls are in Missouri on furlough.


Ok, May 20th, 2010. Some of the Woodbulls are reunited. :) Kent and Uncle Charles came up to Covenant where Dot and I were! It was great! Kent came to check out Covenant College and see if that is where he would like to go to college. God provided and Kent will be coming to Covenant College in the fall of 2010! So, three of us Woodbulls will be together :) Anywho, it was great to spend time with one of the Woods over the three days Kent was visiting.


In other Woodbull news :) Kent, Dot and I will all be going to Covenant College in Georgia this coming year. Dot and I will be starting into our second year and we are both so excited. It was a wonderful first year! We are also excited to see Kent coming as well. Who knows, maybe all the Woodbulls will end up coming to Covenant. :)
The Woods are going to be coming back to the USA on furlough sometime in the end of this year or the beginning of next year.
And the Bulls (minus Dot and me) will be moving to Zambia by the end of this year, Lord willing.
It's crazy, it's exciting, it's what's going on in the Woodbulls lives :)

I wish I had more to share, but since we haven't been together in so long, there isn't a whole lot to update about :( Sorry. But I hope you enjoyed this mini update :)

Woodbulls together for a Week: Last Day :'(

Tuesday came very soon. And that old saying was proven true once again,
"Time flies when you're having fun!"

Wow! Ain't that the truth!

Anyways, in the morning, Sarah Ellen tucked Gracie back into bed that way she could sleep and be warm;) haha.. it looked cozy!

My feet... :)

This may look like Yahtzee.. but I have dubbed it, "The Distracter of School" :) hehe

Nooo Aunt Julie's been framed!

Bethy "devouring" her tangerine! We would name them before we ate them... can't remember the name for this one. The one before this one was Reneé.

Eating lunch :)

The Second! :) hehe

Eating dinner :) Mmm.. Good stew!

Hehe... everyone's faces are very interesting looking while they're eating ;)


That night Uncle Ken and Aunt Lisa came back with the Stolks. :) It was great to see Uncle Ken and Aunt Lisa again! And the Stolks too (The Stolks will be staying with the Wood's for about 6 months. They will help get the hospital built! Very exciting!) ... It was sad leaving :( Always is sad leaving half of your family, but that week was definitely fun and one full of great memories!! :) Thank you Woods!!!
