Time Flies

This past week went pretty fast, as did the weekend. Jake is keeping busy with Math Courts. It's a math competition the school is involved in. He is the head proctor for the junior high, so he has to make up schedules to practice with the kids as well as all the review sheets for them. I'll be helping him at the meets, as well as the elementary kids are their meets. It's been good for him - to learn to be organized so all the kids know what's happening and what to do. He kept busy with that this weekend as well.


Yesterday we meet an older couple from church, Beverly and Dean Brubacker, as well as another man David Creel, for some snorkeling at Pau Pau Beach. It was pretty awesome. You could walk far out towards the reef and snorkel around. We saw tons of awesome, colorful fish. After swimming there we went up to the Far East Broadcasting base where they live/work. We had hamburgers and salad for dinner and blueberry pie for dessert. It was so great! After eating and good conversation we played PIT. Then Jake and I took the 35 minute scooter ride back. haha! Some of the awesome fish we saw (not our pictures):



the black and white zebra fish - they are so cute!!!




Today we had church, then a cheap lunch with David and Nina, Pastor Greg and Sandy, four amazing people. After lunch we went to the Grotto. We swam there. It was so clear today that you could see the underwater caves. We snorkeled and jumped and swam there for a few hours and then came back here to Sugar Dock and swam around and talked here. Then a yummy $1 Taco Dinner at Oleai's - the only restaurant with a patio on the beach. A great but fast weekend.
Here comes another week...and then only one more week until Report Cards. I can't believe how fast it's gone!
How are you all doing? Keeping busy with life? Any new things going on that you could let us knwo about??? We'd love to hear how things are going for all of you that read this. We miss you all tons!
Keep praying for us as we continue to learn how to live and teach in the Asian culture but also as we continue to live and learn from each other. We value your prayers. Thank you!
Love always!
Love,
J&J
