News

Well, it's really been a while since we've posted. Not much is happening right now. We haven't even really been taking too many pictures for our blog.
Last weekend we went up to the bustling metropolis of Cobden, Ontario. We visited a couple of old friends from our Redeemer days. (They're called "old friends" because we've known them for so long, not because they are aging.) We mostly just hung out, played games and relaxed. We did make it over to Ottawa for some homestyle Korean cooking at Miga. I even got to pull out some of my rusty Korean restaurant language skills. They can't be too bad, since we got what we wanted.
On Sunday morning we spoke briefly to their church about Wycliffe's work and our future work. It went as well as it could have, considering there was no nursery or Sunday school that day.
Following the service we went down to the even bigger metropolis of Lyn, which is very near Tincap, Ontario. We spent the night at Jono's aunt's house. It was good to be able to visit them, since I think the last time we visited them was over 10 years ago.
All in all it turned out to be a busy, but enjoyable weekend.
In other news, for those of you who we don't talk to on a regular basis, we have received news that we are to be in Nigeria for September. It's a bit later than anticipated, and a bit later than we would have liked, but now we get to spend the summer here. It also gives us a bit of extra time to make sure we can get together with you all.
We really don't have any pictures recent picutres, so we'll leave you with this picture. It's a bit old but it'll do.

Dedication

On Sunday we dedicated Samuel to the Lord in the presence of family and friends. It was a good time. We had about 20 people over to the house afterward for some soup and sandwiches.
Samuel was the star of the show. Oh yeah, and in case you're wondering, Samuel is wearing a gown, not a dress. (Gowns are not just for girls as demonstrated by the thousands of male university graduates who also wear gowns during their graduation ceremonies.)


My parents are dog-sitting for some friends and Stephen loves to play with Sugar.

Some new pics

Stephen spends a lot of time on the potty. We are hoping it gets better!
We did a mini photo shoot with the boys today at home. We are too cheap to pay someone else to do it. How do you get a 2 1/2 year old and 2 1/2 month old to smile and look at the camera at the same time?
Here's a cutie!
Does he know how to show off?
