Ramaphosa Project

Last Saturday we joined our church in visiting the Ramaphosa township. Lucas' Sunday School class at church had been collecting items to give to 100 children in Ramaphosa. Each bag held sloppies (aka flip flops), a toothbrush & toothpaste, a pair of underwear, a small bottle of vaseline and a small toy. Lucas put together a bag for a 4 year old boy named Lebo. Before handing out the gifts, the children and parents (mostly mothers came) watched the Jesus film in Zulu and ate a small lunch of popcorn, juice and a hot dog. Lucas and Alexis were able to recognize many of the Bible stories even though it wasn't in English. The children also enjoyed playing several group games as we waited for the movie to start. It was a great morning and a wonderful opportunity to minister to others!

One more day of First Grade!

Here is a quite relaxed picture of Lucas as he waits for his morning ride to school! He is up by 6:30am and his ride comes shortly after 7am so he can beat the traffic and make it to school by 7:45am. Wow! We have certainly learned to be early morning people! Yes, Lucas is almost done with first grade! What an amazing year it has been! Can't believe our little boy is growing up so quickly! He's glad for a long break before he starts 2nd grade on January 16.

Alexis' Piano Recital

Alexis played in her first piano recital! We are so proud of her! She has really grown much more confident being in front of an audience. She played 2 songs by memory: For My Teacher and Sailing. She did a great job and was so cute to watch!
