Fun with food

Here is Madylanne, digging into her corn cob,

freshly picked from our garden!

She loves her Friday family night Pizza!

And last she was having lots of fun roasting marshmallows,

a first for us in Zambia.

Can you tell she LOVES her new Snoopy shirt from

Grandma and Grandpa??
















When life gives you giant lemons...

Look at these lemons, they are as big as grapefruit!
They grow in the tree in front of our house.
We have been enjoying lots of lemonade and lemon bars.
Yummy!

Hippo Sightings!


Hippos folks! Look at these slumbering mammer jammers!
They are on the sand bar island that we can see in the middle
of the Zambezi River which is basically our back yard.
They come every few days and sun themselves and trumpet
and bellow and snooze. Pretty neat!

Wednesday Bible study under the big tree


Here is the first Wednesday Bible study, in the area cleared by Boyd out in front of our fence. It was a good group! And we had another good group this Wednesday, although it was entirely made up of different folks! We pray each Wednesday God will bring the folks He wants to attend. Mark is doing such a great job teaching, I am very proud of him! We pray God will open people's hearts to His Word and to following Him sincerely.

Madylanne







Here is Madylanne, she's decided she likes the puppies now that they don't jump quite so much. She loved planting her very own tomato seeds in the garden, thank you Nana!
And here she is being cute on the front door step.

Lunch Party

We had visitors for lunch a few Saturdays ago...Pastor Edward, his wife Eden, and their three boys. We had a great time! They are from the Philippines, are missionaries like us, and a wonderful, fun, Godly family.


Face Lift


Mark is building a new fence, Dominic is putting a new thatch roof on the storage hut (with Madylanne's help, ha) and Boyd cleared the area out front of our yard so we can have Bible study under the big tree now. Home improvement time!
