Yesterday & Yesterday & Yesterday

We sat down to write an update tonight and couldn't remember much from the past six weeks--it's been a blur! Luckily, our phones had a few pics on them to tell the story. 


One year of service=one flower.  Nice job, Stew!

International Day. An American and a Canadian representing Brazil in Thailand.  What? 
Hot days of over 100 degrees require makeshift pools.
George Sawyer and Huck Finn

Hair cut = happiness
Stew helped organize a service project for the 10th graders, sweeping the neighborhood.
BYOB: Bring your own broom. 
Happy Thai New Years! They celebrate with a countrywide water fight. 
  "Are these grasshoppers fresh?"
Jill & Juni getting to know the Thai staff at school. 


Stew's hosted a satirical coffee shop for class one day. Who says high school English is no fun?    
Write On! The annual poetry and prose night at a local coffee shop for students with contest-winning entries. 
Jill worked on fixing up the guest house.
Red welcome mat is out; come on over....it has AC!
The kids are doing well with  life here in Thailand.  At the moment they are all healthy.. hooray

Thanks for your emails, your support, and the prayers you say on our behalf...love you all!

    1. Thanks Dan and Shell! We are doing pretty good here...grateful for the peace we have that this is where we are suppose to be, regardless. The kids are really loving life here, out catching all sorts of 'things' and wanting to keep them all. You guys come over anytime...that guesthouse has a whole other side, we can line up mattresses and throw all the kids on them!
