Christmas

Simeon eating with his cuzins on Christmas Eve.

The Fam (I think I was around 27 weeks at this point)

Opening presents...he wasn't the biggest fan...I'm sure he'll come around ;).

Papa and Nana with the ninos.

Simeon during an affectionate moment ;).

Christmas morning breakfast...Simeon enjoyed this much more than his gifts :).

Merry Christmas :)

Sim's new fave hat.

Stylin' and ready to go! He really loves his new winter accessories and makes sure he doesn't leave the house without either of them :).

Christmas Day at Grandma and Grandpa's.

Getting a little help from Uncle Nate and Lina.

Just like Grandpa ;)

Simeon's first time under the mistletoe! He looks pretty comfortable ;).

His fave reading spot.

We didn't have a working stove/oven for the first few weeks in our new house. Dakota did a little demo work and switched some things around in our kitchen so now we have a fully functioning kitchen :). Simeon was rather distressed he was not able to help in the process.

Deck the Halls

We decorated for Christmas a little later this year due to moving into our first house last Saturday. We had lots of wonderful help and are settling in nicely! I haven't taken pictures of the rest of the house, but here's a few of our festive decorating session :).

We just went to Wal-Mart to get a tree, but Simeon didn't seem to mind :). 

He did many laps around the room in excitement. 

Simeon got his first taste of hot chocolate. He wouldn't put it down to get a pic ;).

He also could not put his cookie down.

Putting his first decoration on...he enjoys pulling them off and then darting away as fast as possible to avoid punishment ;).

The finished product!

My favorite Christmas decoration...a manger scene all the way from Indonesia...thanks Dylan and Angie!!

Merry Christmas to All :)

My Trip To Indonesia!

I wanted to share some of the pictures so you can see what God is doing on the other side of the world.

The four guys, (From left: Even, Rich, Derek, Dakota)

After a lot of this

And a lot of that

We made it to Indo to see Dylan, Angie and the kids!

The plane we took into the tribe

God parted the clouds so we could land. 

Cooking some dinner!

The floor that Dylan made in town

They were our live entertainment

A snake on a leash....

Our Shower

This is what we slept in.

And this is what we woke up to!!

And a lot of this - they loved to watch what we were doing.

Yes those are my pants... and yes there is still a lot left on the ground.

The house progression.

I think it's straight....

What we left it as. 

We're thankful to the Lord that he sent us on this trip and for the safety that he provided. 

Pleases continue to pray for Angie and Dylan as they finish the house and move out to live with the Dem People.
