A Few August Happenings

Since it's nearing the end of September, we figured we should put up a few last photos from August.

The first photo is from Eric's birthday - August 14. His day was filled with food (surprise, surprise)! Wendy started him off with a real treat. Here she is, showing off her handiwork:

She went all out this year - she made something that one can usually only find at IHOP - stuffed french toast! It was french toast, stuffed with a cream cheese mixture, then topped with apple topping, powdered sugar, and dream whip - plus a side of sausage! A picture of the wonderful concoction is shown below.

Doesn't that just make your mouth water??? For lunch, we had Reuben sandwiches, and then for dinner, it was a trip to the local restaurant for a nice dinner with several other missionaries.

Then, the next day, we headed up to Libreville for our annual field forum. It is a week-long retreat for the missionaries here - it's a time of rest, worship, teaching, and hanging out with the other missionaries. It was a really nice time, and there was plenty of good food! Here's a picture of most of the folks that were there:

Looks like a pretty nice crew, huh? We're really thankful for this wonderful family of missionaries that God has provided!
