This is not my normal choice of food, but I ate it ... and ... it was ... alright. I admit it's not terrible, but it's still not my favorite. Craig wanted to get some family pictures, so we headed to the beach.
Here we watched people horseback riding, parasailing (yes, if you look closely, that guy is dressed like Santa in silk pajamas), we dipped our toes in the water, Jackson built a castle, Sydney text messaged like any good teenager and then we took some family pictures. Oh dear, that guy's not family. How did that get in there? Ok, I'll just sum it up by saying we enjoyed looking at God's creation today. ;)
I don't know if I've told you, but my sister and her family are leaving Malaysia. They feel God calling them on to the next stage in their lives. They don't know exactly what that entails yet, so they are living by faith right now. They have given their notice at the church and will be leaving in June or July. I told them they should use this picture (above) on their last prayer letter. I'm excited for them to see where God leads them next. Of course I would love for them to come back to Canada, but if not, then I'll just have to travel some more. Oh darn!
After our time on the beach we went to Jode & Craig's friends home. They are "lovely" (that one's for you, Jode) people and we had a great time playing games, eating and fellowshipping (is that word?).

It was a bit hard to believe it was the Christmas season when it was so warm outside, but I got used to it. :)
