ROLLLL TIDE!! Saturday

Hey,
Much thanks to Linda Fikes for keeping us posted about the game. My sister said she would tivo it for us to watch when we get back. Can't wait. A bit about today and then I have to go pack. We have to be checked out by 8:00 and if you could see our room you would laugh really hard about that! Britt just anounced daylight savings time was tonight and that we would lose an hour of sleep. I guess it is the opposite here because they are going into spring here. So about today.
It was a good day, however, it was already raining when we arrived at the clinic. So it was noisy in the chapel. But we saw around 68 or so patients still. We didn't get too wet. I believe there have been around 350 decisions for Christ made this week. One of the boysthat Britt gave a harmonica to came back to the clinic and had worked on something for Britt to hear. It was good. Britt was able to give him another quick lesson. That was a lot of fun.
Tonight we went to downtown Sao Paulo to another mall. Also fun. Tomorrow we are going to church then back to downtown to something called "hippey feta?"..not sure about that name, but it is where they fill the medians I think, with various crafts and original works of art. etc. then to the airport. Our flight leaves at 10:55 pm Brazil time. Hopefully we can sleep a little and wake up in Atlanta! I suppose this will be my last blog for the trip. I had a blast and hope it was informative to read. I had some great responses all week and we really appreciate it! Who knows I may blog every now and then after we return! You'll have to check back to see.
Ok, I've got to help Britt with the packing. Can't wait to see everyone when we get back!
Love you all!

Sorry for the wait you had for the final score. I got home from Food World with just one minute left in the game and was a bit disappointed Bobby and Brandon forgot to keep updating the score for you as I had requested!!!! They got a bit "involved" in the last half as the scores got closer!!! Thinking about the boy that came back to play the harmonica for you and Britt made tears...so glad y'all were able to give him the harmonica and a couple of quick lessons. 350 decisions! More tears. Sounds like tomorrow will be fun and we can't wait to hear about your day and more of the trip when you get back. Good luck with the packing and we're much in prayer for your safe travel home...wondering where and what you might want to eat first upon your return! (?) Y'all be careful and we love you. Linda, Bobby, Brandon ^j^
