Catching Up


Last week, we stole away to the beach town of Hua Hin for a couple days. It was beautiful weather (one day it was so cold we didn't even go swimming in the pool!) and the kiddos enjoyed the sand and surf.


A few weeks back I took the kids to the park and when Adele's feet touched the sand there she screamed and I thought "uh oh, not a good sign for the beach." But, she LOVED it...as witness!


Calvin enjoyed his time as well.
I have a funny story to share. When we were away was when the airport was seiged by the anti-government protesters but we were clueless. We didn't know anything about it. So, we're eating at a restuarant our last night in Hua Hin and one of the waitress's asks me if I am afraid about all that is happening. I tell her no, I'm not afraid because it's downtown and we live out near the new airport!!! She then asked me again, "you live near the new airport" and I said,"Yeah, really far from all that so there's no need to fear." Later as I was sharing this with Paul we got a really good laugh out of it becuase she probably thought I was off my rocker! I also should have said that I don't fear because I trust God but it just didn't even come to my mind to say that.

And, off the subject a bit, we did homeschool Monday afternoon outside. The weather was so lovely and cool. I think it was probably in the 70s but I am not sure. PJ enjoyed the change in environment. =)

Oh, I loved all of the catching up! So fun to see you all at the beach and remember our time there together; I wish Emmy could have been digging in the sand with PJ...

Thank you for all the detail about campus party and birthdays, and it was fun to see PJ working on his letters outside! I'm going to show that one to Emmy as encouragement that he's doing the same thing she's doing...
