Adventures of the week
Poppa & Aaron
Aaron helping with the laundry
Small group Friday evening.
Singapore Slingers basketball game, part of the NBL (An Austrian professional league). The game was a lot of fun despite the low turnout, basketball is not a big thing here. We are looking forward to going to their final game this Wednesday. This is the first year for Singapore to be in the league.

Grandparents are here!!!!
Aaron has been one tired little boy these last few days. He has been entertained almost every moment since Betsy's parents arrived on the 23rd. We have been playing with balls, reading stories, and tickling left and right. He even had some sips from a grown-up cup. Gigi has been capturing most of this on film, so we included some of her pictures on our blog.
Papa and Gigi also accompanied Aaron and Betsy to the English as a Second Language (ESL) class. We also included a picture of Betsy helping her students.
As you can imagine, Papa and Gigi were totally wiped out with all the heat and humidity. They are "recuperating" today. We took it easy and just played at home. Ahhh, vacation!

Eleven Months!
Wow, it is amazing how quickly the year has past. Hard to believe it is already 2007. Here are our pictures celebrating 11 months for our little guy. He sure does some crazy things with his mouth!
Sunset
Thought we'd share a picture from our deck of the sunset. The sun is setting from behind the camera, but the lighting on the harbor cranes was amazing, sorry the camera doesn't quite do it justice!

Getting so TALL!
As always, December has been a crazy, busy time, sorry it has been so long since we've posted, but here are a bunch of pictures for you.
This first set was taken in mid-December.

Church Camp 2006
December 18-21 we had the opportunity to go to Church Camp for the first time here in Singapore. About 90 of us took the six hour drive up to Port Dickson, Malaysia. It was a fun time of fellowship with our church family.
We shared a suite with this family. The boys loved playing with Aaron (and 'Uncle Danny')!
Exploring the lobby, Mancala anyone?

Aaron and one of his fans: Erin!
The resort had a great pool, if only it was dry!
Dancing with auntie.
Heading home. Betsy, Aaron, and his bump!
Yes, on the last day of camp Aaron got his first major boo-boo. Daddy was carrying him down the concrete stairs and hit a slippery spot. Daddy fell down (no tumbling though). Two major body parts hit the edge of a stair, Daddy's elbow and Aaron's forehead. Both are fine now. We were able to get frozen squash on the forehead very quickly and had a couple nurses look at it as well. By now the bump and bruise are basically gone!

Aaron's First Christmas
On the phone with Gigi. Notice the bump is almost gone!
Playing with all his new toys, Aaron didn't quite figure out the opening of presents, but he sure enjoys all the toys and books!

Aaron is such a smart kid! Not only in order, but color coordinated as well!
Good morning Daddy, look I started undressing myself! See, I got an arm and a leg out!

PARTY!!
We had a lot of fun this past weekend. ICS had our Christmas program on Friday night. It was a fun program with a lot of improvement over the past things we have done. Afterwards we went to "Cold Stone Creamery" with some friends for some great ice cream!
On Saturday we had our annual community Christmas party. It was a lot of fun to talk to people that we met last year and for them to see Aaron. There were lots of games and prizes, we even won the "Most Colorful Family" prize, a new iron! Of course the highlight was the ability to sing Christmas Carols. Betsy and I joined another man to lead in the singing of "Hark the Herald Angels Sing", "Oh, Come All Ye Faithful", and "Silent Night", we sang all verses to them as well, so the story of Christmas was told to many.
Today we also received word that my (Danny) cousin Holly has finally arrived at the most wonderful party. She has been battling disease and weakness here on earth for most of her life. On Sunday night her Savior welcomed Holly into His arms in heaven where she will never suffer again. Please pray for the family that is left here without her, especially for her Mom & Dad and her little brother and sister.
Enjoy the pictures.

Exploring Mount Faber Lodge
Daddy took Aaron on a little exploration of our place here.
Here he is at the barbeque area.
What is this stuff?
It feels funny Daddy, help me!
Aah, back home, what is that smell?

Christmas break is quickly approaching, we are surrounded by the sights and sounds of the season. Yes, we get to listen to Christmas music in the malls and enjoy frosted Christmas trees along the busy streets. All we are missing is a little snow!
Of course, what would December be without parties? Saturday we had our staff Christmas party at the Singapore American Club; it was a lot of fun! Next week we are looking forward to our community Christmas party, please pray that through this season we will be able to share Christ's love with our neighbors!
