The end of week #2 in the USA

Josh had his cavaties filled at Dr. Holmes' office.  Josh did great and Dr. Holmes was really super with him. 

We have been so busy doing so many great things.  Josh & Cate are going to play Upwards Soccer at The Chapel so they had evaluations with their friend, Cory.  They had seen Cory at Pastor Hawks' pool so they knew he was their friend and felt comfortable at the evaluations.

The kids have really taken to the water and swimming is in our daily routine.  They will be in for a shock when school starts and they have to stop swimming each day.  They sure love the water.

When we got home from swimming one day we had a package at our door.  It was from some of our favorite people, John & Kim Porter.  They sent the kids some new clothes and paint books.  They always make the package special by putting their names on the front and writing them a personal letter.  Thanks Kim & John! 

Our friends, Josh & Leah, came over for the day on Friday.  We spent some time at the house and then went to a movie.  It is nice to have friends to hang out with. 

And then at night we have a celebration party with our friends, the Pearsons, because they just got matched with their new daughter, Lienne, from China.  We wanted to show them how excited we were about their big news and swim with Lauryne & Landon.  We had fun at the Hawks' pool.  Thanks Pator Rick and Miss Cathy.

On Saturday we decided to try kids' church at The Chapel instead of going into the big church and it worked out great.  Miss Becca and Mr. Fred sure do a nice job!  Plus Cate saw her friend Lauryn Pearson there and that made her feel right at ease.  Thanks Lauryne for being a good friend to Cate.

Of course we have to have some silly pictures with Mom & Dad!

And to end our week today on Sunday we had our bible study group up at the lake to meet the kids and enjoy some social time on the water.  It was so much fun and the kids did really good getting along with everyone.  Thanks for coming guys!  We are so thankful for your support and prayers through our journey with Josh & Cate.

Tomorrow starts week #3 in the USA for us.  We have had a great start to life in America.

Thanks for reading our blog and being a blessing to us.
