Friends and Finishing the Dog Kennel and Homeschool!

 

We weren't sure if we would see this family before they went home to the US. We used to be neighbors in Wewak... and now we got to be neighbors again for a few days. So fun for the kids!

And we finished our last day of school in the middle of June!! Yeah!!

More friends came to visit!!

The Dog Kennel is finished!

Happy 39th Birthday to Jacob!

 

Nate has a membership to this hotel, so he gets free nights every so often. And he gave one to us... So we enjoyed a day away for Jacob's birthday while Uncle Nate watched the kids!

Fresh squeezed juice at the mall!

Then the kids came later and enjoyed the pool with us.

Bubble and Dominoes

 

And this is some serious bubble throwing!

One can never have too much fun with bubbles!

And serious fun with dominoes.... a good thing as well!

Jacob starts the Dog Kennel project

 

There are two security dogs on the Port Moresby Centre and they needed a good place to hang out in the day. Jacob had the job planned out and was excited to get going!

Jonathan was happy to have a few hours break from school so he could help dad!

He also built a curb at the back of the car park so people wouldn't accidently hit the fence behind it.

An amazing thing!! A cement truck in PNG! Jacob has always had to mix and pour his own cement. But in the capital of PNG, they have cement mixing companies that deliver cement already mixed! 

Naomi was excited to help with the clean up process too!

I also managed to build a few cement boxes around the underground pipes and valves for easy access and durability on the center.

Recess, Homeschool and the Dentist

 

I was amazed at all the kids could do on this jungle gym! Very creative!

During our 10:00 am recess break, they played and played!

Naomi finished her 100 days of school! It was a amazing... started in August in MA and finished in June in Papua New Guinea!

The dentist office was not a bad place to wait... such an amazing view!

We are very thankful that Jonathan didn't need head gear, but only a retainer! It changes his profile so much! It corrects his jaw and pulls out his lower jaw. So after 1- 1 1/2 years his lower jaw will be caught up with the upper jaw.
