This past weekend there was a fair in town. So, since we didn't have anything else to do, we headed over to check it out. I was expecting something simple but was surprised by how Ladner pulls out the stops. There were lots of free stuff for the kids to do. Animals to pet, small paddle boats for the kids, gymnastics stuff set up, plus all the rides which we steered clear of! There was also free face painting which when we saw the final product I was blown away!
We have been busy, Paul is in school everyday for the next two weeks learning the Hebrew language which is proving to be much more advanced than first thought. He is taking the class with 5 other students, all are training to be Bible translators... and Paul who doesn't want to translate anything. It is intense. Me and the kids are keeping busy finding things to do around here. Our car was in the shop for a few days and seems to be fixed so I am thrilled to have a car again to get around. I have started in on all the school work that was sent with us when we moved. It is going good and it is great to get some work done each day and then play for the rest. We have been asked several times this week why the older girls aren't in school, which requires a long explanation. They miss being in school and enjoyed going with J Man and I to a Strong Start group at a school today. We are getting used to walking on sidewalks, using crosswalks and stoplights. Noticing that people here just look at you but don't say hi but are friendly when you get a chance to talk.
Another huge thing that has happened since we have moved is that Beaner can now ride a bike with no training wheels. We have taken her out every day for the past 5 days and last night was the night. She is so proud of herself and we are proud of her! I should post the video.
Watch close for Cici at the beginning, its a good laugh.
