Parties and Studies

The last few days have been full of them!

Rod and Rod

On Sunday we were at Rod’s house celebrating his birthday.  Certain persons conspired to get a piñata which looked suspiciously like Rod himself.

You can imagine seeing Rod’s wife and kids hitting the piñata with unusual enthusiasm… 😉

Actually, there was another party for Rod tonight – people from the church threw a tamale party after this evening’s study.

Thanksgiving Dinner 2012

Yesterday was Thanksgiving, and we were thankful to have some friends over for a fun evening.  And we were reminded once again that we have a lot to be thankful for!

Oh, and our kids made these cool posters (see the bottom of this post) yesterday.  Do you think they might be a little obsessed with food?

The theme of tonight’s Bible study was How can I study the Bible?  (Hmmm… maybe that should be the first study, not study #39!)  We talked about how to approach our study of the Bible in a way that’s useful.

This week I’m getting ready for my study/class on Thursday, helping with the kids’ school, preparing for Saturday’s study, and lest I forget – there are still visa issues to resolve! 🙂
