School Break

 



This school break we played more games together!

And we went to the pool 2 times, the kids LOVED that!






I also cut everyone's hair!

And the kids did a little bit of school work each morning too.

Jonathan gained a desk. A friend made this desk for me 20 years ago at Interface. I lost it for awhile but then I suddenly found it in storage! So fun that Jonathan can use it now!

The boys played video games and introduced our neighbor Jackson to video games.

The girls made butterfly picture holders.





And we got a snack package that was supposed to be a "vitamin" package from our brother/uncle Nate! I ordered vitamins but it seemed that the healthy snacks took over the box!


Fun with juice and glasses!

Some missionaries weren't returning so they sold their things... Naomi bought their doll house with the money she had saved up for her birthday.

When she turned 4 years old, her Poppie gave her lots of dolls and furniture and now she has a house too!

The kids discovered a new tree over by the storage area where I was helping to sort that same missionaries belongings.



Lego fun!



By the end of our school break Nate's package of snacks had mostly disappeared so I was back to making banana blueberry bread again!

School Activities...

 

Wearing her cousin's Vietnam baggy pants to school! :)



In Naomi's kindergarten class each week there is show and tell on Fridays. They have to bring something to show that begins with the letter they are learning about for that week. This was V week so Naomi brought her dad the violinist who made his own violin. And he played a jig and they all danced!

Making Valentine heart cakes for Valentine's Day! Yum!

Skate afternoon in the gym! Yeah!!





Jonathan's 4th and 5th grade class all did so well with Reading Festival!


Reading Festival!! Each ice cream scoop stands for 1 hour of reading during the 2 weeks! :)

Performing the book Gingerbread man!

Friends and Welcoming Guests Children to Outside Play!

 

The kids loves to play on this playground every day... if it isn't raining they are out there playing! There are so many games to invent!


Naomi plays with Naomi S and Lilli S almost every day!

Naomi also plays with our guesthouse guest children too! Sometimes we know them from our time in Wewak, like Linda!

Guests children become friends if they aren't already and join in the fun of the day or sometimes the phase lasts for a few days! :)


Our friends that we used to live next door to in Wewak brought the kids back these fancy diamond paint crafts from Germany!



Sometimes there is a lot of water to play in and invent new games!
