My Life By a Snapshot

Hey there, "Finally another blog post!" I know. I'm mad at me too. But, the past few months have been crazy and crazy amazing. So, here I am to finally tell you all about it and a very important decision I made during that time. Warning; this is a long catch-up post!  Firstly, what on earth have I been up to these past few months? A whole lot! Firstly we have been busy hosting teams, which I absolutely love doing! We had the Gap squad in September and October. Then, three 11n11 teams for the month of November. Now we have another Gap squad for January and February. Why does this make me busy? Well, I have now been employed to cook for them all! It's so much fun and I love it so much. It's such a rewarding job. Each week I get two people to come with me to plan, shop for and cook all our meals. I get to know different people each week. I get to learn new things about food each week. And I get to show new people the back roads and cool quirks of this awesome ...

Hi everyone, This past week has been amazing! Our first ever World Race team arrived on Thursday and let me tell you... They are amazing! There are seven of them; three boys and four girls all from the US. We love them all. They are such an understanding, kind hard working team and we have enjoyed having them so much thus far. Then on Friday they helped us host our first ever Youth Group! We had about 26 kids come to our house. The team sang a few songs then Brittni bravely gave our first youth group message every and did a wonderful job! She told the kids about the reason we as Christians celebrate Christmas and why Advent is so important to us. We played a games and had some snacks too. Some of the kids asked questions and Mum and Rose, our translator, answered them as best they could. The kids had some fantastic questions and I'm sure many of them will come back again next week.               ...

Hello, Last Friday we left for Pailin in the late morning. Pailin is a boarder crossing to Thailand. We went  there to get a new visa. We had to get a one month visa because we changed NGOs so that we could make it into a one year visa soon. It took about an hour and a half to get to the boarder and we spent two hours in Thailand. While there we ate lunch and had a good chat with our friend Sovan and our Taxi driver.  A pretty, little, dusty lantern and the pretty, little, dusty restaurant.  The sun hit this cloud in just the right places!  Time for some lunch! Hmmm, what should I have? We got back to Battambang with minimal  difficulties. We were always able to go straight up to the windows. No lines for us this time around! Our Taxi river and Sovan were extremely helpful as well. It was a relaxing time. But we wont have to do it again in a while anyway! That's all I have for today. It's short by I wanted to write some...
