Random happenings since Nannie left last week...

 Some former co-workers gave us these two pink chairs and Jonathan loves them! We sit in them to read books and to watch Mickey Mouse. :)

 Jacob and Jonathan built a makeshift wagon out of some old wagon wheels that we had... and Jacob is teaching Bear, the dog, to pull Jonathan. :)

 The plane from Goroka just came with a few things that came for us via ship... a small IKEA order... little desk and chair for Jonathan!

 Jonathan loved helping his dad put it together!

 And now he loves using it for coloring and "working" on his computer. :)

Saying Goodbye...

 We thoroughly enjoyed our time together here in Wewak! So thankful for God's perfect timing!
We miss you Nannie!

 4:30 am waiting at the airport for Cheryl's flight.

Last Days with Nannie...

 Jonathan loves playing with diggers and dump trucks!

 And he loves any type of ball!

 He even likes dogs... these puppies were just born!

 One last time at the beach with Nannie!

 And we had a little fun and celebrated Jonathan's 2 1/2 birthday since Nannie was here. :)

 This time he blow out the candle all by himself!

 And he really loved the noise makers!

 Reading with Nannie!

Teaching times...

 A missionary that worked in PNG for many years returned last month for a visit and taught some local pastors. We enjoyed making lots of banana bread for their snacks. :)

 Cheryl got to go with our co-workers to a local classroom to help read to the students for 1/2 hour twice a week. They read the Lamb, a children's clear gospel presentation!

Summer work in Wewak...

 Picking up the Biem missionaries after a long boat ride from their island. They live on an island 80 kms away.

 Fixing a hole in our ceiling... Jacob was a little scared that we had termites eating our walls, but it was just a water leak!

 Helping Norbert, our NTM ICT expert. This is our VSAT internet which doesn't work a lot of the times. But we are thankful for when it does work! And now it is working more often!

 Replacing lights - LED is the cheaper way to go for our PNG Power bill! Mom making sure her son is hard at work! :)

 Our co-workers counter top rotted and so Jacob tore it off and replaced it with the help of a few people.

Random fun at Home in Wewak...

 Jonathan's new shirt from his Aunt and Uncle!
(Go Patriots!)

 Our Night out together while Jonathan and Nannie hung out together. :)

 Jonathan's camera skills....

  Jonathan's camera skills....

 Everyone is trying on Dad's hat!

 Now that is a BANANA!

 It is a 'cold' day, 76 degrees F... breakfast at the Devine house. :)

 And almost 100% humidity!

 Playing on the porch with Nannie... what can we do with sand??

 Enjoying friend's company on a Saturday morning.

 We had a group of Interface students over for dinner. They were in Wewak for two days because they flew into a tribal group in the Sepik. It was fun to be able to help them with supplies and hear their stories as they headed back to Madang.

 So tired!

The sad day... packing up all our books to give away to a library. We have invested in Kindles because our books are not good for Jacob's mold and dust allergies in this climate. Plus it is just a lot easier to travel with no books!
