School & Play!

 

After a hard morning of school, Naomi likes to sit down and watch a little Mickey Mouse! :)

Naomi is not scared of bugs... she had fun putting this Muna bug on her finger!

Jonathan loves it when one of his friends lets him borrow their rip stick!

Jonathan is hard at work at 2nd grade with Teacher Dad.

Naomi loves her preschool learning games!

Building the New Guesthouse Porch

 

The old porch was about to fall down on some of our guests so we thought it was time for a replacement.

There has not been a lot of Guests so the ladies haven't had as much cleaning and cooking with the Covid crisis so they helped me out. They normally do all the cooking so I told them they were going to learn a new recipe today: concrete. One of the most hardiest and strongest recipes there is!

They told me frosting a cake and finishing concrete was very similar.

Hard at work reusing timber from the old porch.

Superman (Jonathan) was a big help in the building.

And the roof is on with no injuries and hopefully it will last a long time!

Hopefully all the missionaries visiting will feel welcome now with our new porch all ready for relaxing after a long day on the road!

The Water Control Centre

 

We supply clean drinking water to our NTM centre as well as our surrounding neighbors.

It is alot of equipment to make sure the water is safe to drink for our missionary base and the communities around us.

The missionaries who are in charge of the water system have not been able to get back in country so now I am trying to look after it. It is a big responsibility and a lot of phone conversations.

But I have enjoyed the challenge and it is great to know many people have good drinking water. There is a saying in PNG that Water is life. It is great to be able to know that the water we provide is safe to drink and helps many people here.

Play!

Playing in the gym is always fun for scooters and roller blades!

Superwoman has joined our family!

It is really nice to have this guesthouse playground right outside our house!

Naomi loves the doll set that she got from Poppie for her birthday last year!

Working on her computer, just like mom and dad!

Miss Tracey, our guesthouse guest (for the last 2 months), who is also our new friend gave the kids a used ipad to play education games on... they love it!

Uncle Nate gave Jonathan an early Christmas present because we will be leaving just before Christmas. The kids love it!

He isn't quite big enough to use it yet, but some missionaries decided not to return and they needed to get rid of it. Jonathan is growing like crazy, so I'm sure he will use it the next months or when we return!

It is also fun and therapeutic for Jacob to set up the track as well.

School and Play continue...
