More Pictures...




















The other day after supper I was fooling around with the kids and taking goofy photos and this was the result...
I think Aidan and Mikah are trying to show the empty tooth spots in their mouths... or something....
The last photo is of our friend Sisi. She would be horrified to know that I posted a photo of her on my blogsite... sorry Sisi... Sisi is working as a Caravan Mechanic for MAF. She has been accepted by MAF to go for her official training and get her license. Once sponsorship is obtained she will apply at a Bible College in Australia and go there to study. Currently there is only one licensed national mechanic in the hangar here. There are guys with loads of experience but unwilling to take the step to being responsible for signing off on the maintenance. This is quite a typical issue here. The other problem is that because the education system here is learning by rote, many have issues with trouble-shooting problems. They just can't do it. Sisi is different. She is very smart and will make an excellent mechanic.
Today we had four men from New Heights church in Vancouver, Washington over for supper. They are part of a team of seven men here to do some electrical work that is badly needed in the MAF complex and hooking up the new generator.
The kids were done school last Thursday and are already having some trouble keeping entertained... It doesn't help that all of our immediate neighbours, their playmates, have gone home for the summer. It's awfully quiet around our area these days.
But there is a little bonus, because our neighbours are gone for the summer, we can use their barbeque!!! Yippee!!! (Totally wishing we had packed one in our crate from Canada...)
