So I have been wondering lately if anyone actually reads this. I know our lives aren't incredibly exciting but I thought that a few people might want to know what we are doing over here. So if you do read this could you let me know or else I might think about not doing it anymore.
On a different note, we come home in 41 days!
Jer is off camping tonight with our friend Kyle from home. I hope they are having fun. I am finally getting a chance to clean up the apartment after living with 2 men for a week in a half. I thought Jer was messy but both of them together, I can't even put it to words. Except maybe gross. So we will see how long it stays clean when they get home tomorrow.
Jer is on holidays this week so hopefully we will get out a bit more and do something fun. I am still working though but only tuesday and thursday. I'm still loving the children's ministry but I find that my favorite part of it is planning events and activities and thinking up new ideas for the ministry. Teaching is fun but I wouldn't say it was my calling or anything. One of my recent ideas was the question box. Every sunday we give the kids a piece of paper to write down a prayer request or (this part was my idea) a question about God, family, life, ect... They kids don't write their names on it so they don't feel embarrassed to write whatever they like. We pick 2-3 questions out of the box at random each weeks to answer and read out to the group. The kids love it and man have we ever had some difficult but great questions. Sometimes we have all 3 of us in our little office working on one question during the week. It was a small idea but has turned into a great thing that I think they will continue to do after I am gone.
Well this post is kind of all over the place so I will leave it at that. Hopefully someone is actually reading this and if you are then thanks!

I read it too! Not only is it a great way to keep up with distant cousins, but I'm teaching a grade 4 unit about Australia and I love all that you share about living there. It helps me a lot. I also share a passion for crocheting afghans, although we have all we need for Thailand at this stage, and enjoyed your projects. Now if only I can get you to do my hair . . .;)
