Back Home again!!!

Wow! It sure is good to be back at my own computer again!! Someone mentioned a while ago that our blog still had us in the snow!! Blogging just didn't work in Australia which is why that was the case. Some days we would sure love to have a bit of snow here in Papua New Guinea though!! It is VERY hot here. I know I know - I'm pregnant. True but even the non-pregnant are saying it is very hot. Really.

We had a wonderful relaxing and refreshing time in Australia. What a blessing to spend Christmas and New Year with family again after 5 years!! The kids too loved having family around, going camping, doing swimming lessons at the beach... lots of fun things to enjoy.

And now it is back home. It is good to be in our 'own' house again. Good to set up our own routines again and not live out of suitcases. Good to be able to just wear shorts and t-shirts and that's it! Good to see everyone again and feel welcomed back. So we are thankful and happy to be back here. The kids too are doing well. Playing with their friends (especially Amy and Levi 't Hart) hours playing outside, catching frogs (there are literally hundreds here at the moment - little ones of all colours - even I think they are cute!), getting very very dirty, just being kids. And we have started homeschooling too which is going pretty well.

Tonight is the first night of 'lotu' (like a fellowship/service) at the Bible College. Wayne is running it tonight. This week is a work week for all the students - so they are all here but classes don't start just yet. We had one of the the new Lae couples over for dinner tonight which was nice.

So that is a quick update on our lives. Sorry - no pictures. Haven't got the camera up and running yet...
