Give Thanks

Happy Thanksgiving!
We know it's early, but we've already had our feast and fellowship. Due to a government meeting of top people in the commerce world we were blessed with two days off school. However, in order to finish school on time in December we had to swap those two days for our two days of Thanksgiving vacation. Yet we were undaunted in our pursuit of turkey, stuffing, potatoes, and pie! Here's some shots of the preparations!A mini sweet potato pie made from the leftover batter. Mmm...nothing says Thanksgiving like a plump turkey. Of course...after thawing it overnight and a three hour battle to remove the strange articles stuck inside, Casandra was surprised to find that we had the majority of Tom Turkey at our disposal. So being good stewards of our purchase we disposed of the "extra" parts! The finished product...which turned out to be not as finished as we thought. After a second round of baking though we had some delicious slices to share with our friends!

Catching Up

Okay so it's been awhile...a long while, but we've been busy. Well, I guess the truth is that we've been slowly slowing down! Maybe you've asked yourself before, "Why do pregnant women waddle?" The scientifically profound answer is...it's the only way we can walk without falling over! Here's some pics of our activities over the past few weeks. An inside view of the church. Me in front of the church door! I finally made it through a full Sunday of services. =) Children's Church has started up again on the second floor! Getting ready for comunion service. Our church sign is back up! Please continue to pray for the finishing touches on the construction project!
