Farewell

This week, after Bible Study, we had a farewell tea for our dear friend Shelley! She is not leaving Malawi, but she is moving to another town which is four hours away. I don't think there was a dry eye in the room. We trust the Lord with His plans and we know that He will continue to guide her and her family as they transition out of Lilongwe. We love you Shel!

Celebrating with Rachel

 This week we celebrated with Rachel by having a baby shower for her.

 Bethany made the fabulous diaper cake.

We played a few games. One of which the ladies had to draw a picture of baby Flo#2 on their heads.  Rachel chose the best drawing.

 Bethany with Dianna

 Denise won the best drawing of baby Flo#2!

We had a delightful time together and are all excited to meet the newest Floreen. Rachel is so dear to us and we are thankful for the way she teaches us at Bible study every week.

Need a haircut?

I really need a haircut, was thinking about going to a salon just near our house...

Bloukop

Bradley caught his first 'bloukop koggelmander' a.k.a. blue headed lizard!

Double Digits

Today is Ami's double digit birthday.  Where has the time gone? We cannot believe that it was just ten years ago that our first precious girl was born.

Ami is a real sweetheart! She is a tremendous helper and looks out for her siblings too. 

Night Out

For Ami's birthday she and her friends went out to dinner at an Italian Restaurant in town.  Brian and I sat at a table around the corner from them. They felt quite grown up.

Allison loves ballet

While I was in South Africa with Benjamin, Brian signed Allison up for ballet. We have two professional ballerinas who teach at our school and Allison is delighted to be a part of their praogram.
