Easter Party!!!

Last week we hosted a Easter Party for our English Bible students. We had a great time dying Easter eggs(See picture), eating pizza, and talking about some of our Easter family traditions. The students had never dyed Easter eggs before. Keith, with help from Milly and Hunter, told the Easter story. This was the first time many of these students had heard the full story. They asked some great questions. Please continue to pray for these students.

Keith -- Home alone with the kids!!!

Page went on a women's retreat this past weekend for a couple of days of relaxation. Page had a great time enjoying other women's company, shopping, eating, and not having to worry about kids, the home, etc.

I (Keith) did ok with all the kids. On Thursday night, one of Milly's friends spent the night -- so I had 5 kids that night. We ordered pizza on Thursday night and on Friday night all but Levi were invited to eat with friends. Levi and I ended up eating at KFC with the superintendent of Morrison Academy.

Page came home on Saturday and we were all excited to see her, especially me!!!

Field Day Results!!!

Today Milly, Wade, and Hunter had their annual field day. Below are their results and above some pictures of the action. Levi even got into the action as they had a 3, 4, and 5 year old sibling race. Levi won this event. As you can see by the results our kids did well. They also had a great time enjoying the day with their friends.

Levi -- 50 meter (1st place)

Hunter -- Baseball throw (3rd place); High Jump (1st place); 100 meter (3rd place); 200 meter (3rd place)

Page and Keith even ran in the parent fun run. Keith finished in the middle of the pack and Page did pretty good too!!!

English Bible Study

We have begun an English Bible study at a local university close to our house. We had our first lesson today and we had 13 students. We had a great time talking through one of Jesus' parables and look forward to 9 more sessions over the next couple of months. Above are our students and Keith teaching them. Please pray that God will continue to reveal Himself to these students. Thanks.

Hunter turns 7!!!

Today, Hunter turned 7!!! He had a big day today. He celebrated his birthday at school and his Mom fixed cupcakes for all of his classmates. Everyone in his class made him a card and they sang happy birthday to him in English and in Chinese!! After school, he came home and opened up his presents (see picture -- present was from his Aunt Carrie and card with money from his Aunt Lissa). Tonight for dinner, Hunter picked McDonalds. On Friday, Hunter will have his "official" birthday party. He has decided to invite a few friends over to eat pizza and play Game Cube.

Hunter's tooth

Finally, Hunter lost a front tooth. We have all been waiting for weeks for one of his front teeth to come out. It seems it has been loose for months. His other front tooth is a little loose so it might not be long before he is snaggle toothed 7 year old. We will celebrate his birthday next week.

"Home Sweet Home"

We made back to Taiwan safely. We left our hotel at 8:00am and stepped into our apartment at 8:00pm. So, not too bad. As we were flying back, Levi turned to Keith and said, "I can't wait until we get back to Taiwan. When we get back I am going to say - Home Sweet Home." Later we found out the real reason he likes Taiwan so much is that he loves his brother's Game Cube that Gommy bought for Christmas. He says that is his favorite thing about Taiwan.
