Hey all!
I got some much need rest and relaxation the last few days, and now its back to school visits!
So a crazy wind/snow storm hit Hungary and europe the last few days, which turned a national holiday into an all night traffic jam...it was crazy! Friday, the 15th, is a national holiday in Hungary celebrating the Hungarian revolution in 1848 against the Hapsburgs in Austria, and apparently they put the national colors all over Budapest, but this year everything had to be cancelled. Here is an interesting article about tanks rescuing people on the highway (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-21806043). Thankfully I didn't have to go anywhere and Erd wasn't super bad, but all of the holiday travel made quite a mess! They are still working to clean up from it all. The storm meant that we didn't work on the field like we were intending to from Thursday through Saturday, but I think that all of us needed a little bit of relaxing! We are working on putting in the first real Hungarian softball field with all-dirt infield, along with fences and poles, so there is a lot to be done! We will be working on that this week after school visits, so please pray for energy for all of us as we get prepared for the season! Also, please continue to pray for our school visits. We have seen around 1000 kids so far, and we are hoping for a few of them to come out for our camp at the end of this month. Its been really fun to get to see a ton of kids, and also see the students already on the baseball teams in there schools, not to mention they love showing baseball to their friends! We are hoping to have a great influence on these kids lives through baseball, so the more that show up the better! Well, at least to a point... :) Finally, please continue to pray that I would lean on God in my tough times and struggles. It has been better lately as I have asked for help and support from God and others, but I still need to work on consistency! Especially in the easy times when I'm not feeling stressed or anything. Oh and one last thing. I'm excited for march madness but not sure how I'm going to keep up with it all this year! Usually it just has to do with skipping classes or taking days of work (the beauty of random jobs with random schedules), but this year it would require staying up super late...what to do, what to do... :)
