Whew! This month has been a bit crazy, we didn't have internet for awhile and I was busy researching homeschool supplies so I am posting odds and ends pictures today. On Dec. 23 we celebrated our 9th wedding anniversary! It's amazing how time goes so fast but we are so blessed to enjoy being married more and more each day!
In the middle of January a couple and their daughter from Mozambique visited Joburg. We knew them from our training that prepared us for the mission field. It was fun to see them again after almost 2 years! We visited the Johannesburg Botanical Gardens and enjoyed a beautiful dry morning. We had them over for supper and enjoyed playing Rummikub. That's the new game of choice at our house (thanks mom!). We've had several families over for supper and we always play a game or two before they go home.
A family we worked with in Dakar just moved here after their stateside assignment. Steve will be working in finance in the office next to Dan's. Lucas was wondering how they would adjust to life here and asked, "Do they know about stoplights?" We assured him they did but it's always interesting to see what our kids remember the most about moving here!
We were reading a Clifford book the other day and Lucas looked puzzled. He then asked, "Why don't they have an electric fence?" Hmmm, good question. Probably because they live in a book!
