Fall Party with Compass Members

What a blast we had with our friends carving pumpkins, eating lots of candy, and playing games. Each team had 30 minutes to carve the most unique pumpkin.

First place went to the "Kind Pirate"

One member walked away with a jar full of candy corns sent from America for guessing the correct amount.

Lots of laughs with friends

Happy 5th Birthday Benjamin!

We can't believe our Thailand boy is now 5 years old. He is beginning to love legos like his big brother, he loves to doodle and draw, and he is a great singer! Last week I caught him on video singing in the mirror using a broom as a guitar.

Storytime with Isabel

Our sweet little Izzie reading to Daddy. I just loved watching her expressions as she made sure she was reading it correctly.

Happy 10th Birthday Caleb!

My homemade cake complete with storm troopers and theHoth Rebel Base.

Legos, legos, legos

We had a lego building competition while watching

one of the Star Wars episodes. Merril and I judged for

creativity and uniqueness. A Dr. Pepper and candybar was

awarded to the first placewinner.

(Dr. Peppers are really hard to find over here, so this is huge)

Harvest Party Fun

The school where Caleb and Laura Grace attend welcomed in the fall season with a Harvest Party. The children enjoyed dressing up, games galore, food, and a tug-o-war competition at the end of the evening. Isabel dressed up as a ballerina and Laura Grace was her ballet teacher. Caleb was a Jedi Knight and Benjamin dressed as spiderman.

First Day of School

Caleb and Laura Grace are beginning their second year at the International School here. There are about 50 students. We moved Caleb up to the 5th grade and he is in a class with 5th and 6th graders. Laura Grace is in the 2nd grade and has 14 1st and 2nd graders in her class. They both have wonderful teachers this year!

Benjamin and Isabel started at a small preschool (in a home) and attend two times a week. It has been good for them to meet and play with other children.
