Edit....

I thought I was just loading these photos but didn't realise that the pics were actually posted on my blog already..... until now....Since the pics are already posted, I might as well finished the posting :-) We worked hard over the weekend with the four services but we also played hard!! A friend bought us rooms for two days at Genting - a themepark resort in the highlands. The weather is similar to that of Nairobi! It was wonderful. The hotel had this advertisment of the illusive White Lion and White Tiger in a magic show.
The girls had so much fun with all the crazy rides. I think we made full use of our "UNLIMITED" rides tickets we paid for, LOL!
The flying Coaster, apparently the only one in Asia. The girls went on it so many times. It goes all the way up and then spin all around....

Just before we headed out to Genting, we celebrated Kathryn's 14th birthday...

This is a picture that Vickie took of Anna with her new camera that also does these pretty scrapbooking backgrounds in the pictures. Cute, eh?

Yummy Mozarella cheese sticks.


This is the bumper boat ride...more difficult than you would think but superbly FUN! It was a long wait to the ride but it was worth it!
Feeding the fishes..

This game in the arcade was a lot of fun. It is a basketball game and you get rewarded for the number of baskets you make. Tony and the girls scored over 100 baskets! It was all very intense and fun!
We are so thankful to the Lord for providing these "pockets" of rest in the midst of our ministry time here in Malaysia. We only have a couple of weeks to go before we return to the missions field of Africa. There will be many last minute meetings. errands, shopping to do. Kathryn will begin high school this year, Vickie will be in her second year of Middle School. Times sure flew by!!

Turning 60 : Reflections on a New Season

  Turning 60: Reflections on a New Season I was having lunch with a friend yesterday and found myself talking about my 60th birthday. I’m not usually one to make a big deal about birthdays—but as I approached this milestone, I found myself reflecting a little more deeply. Sixty feels… different. Special, even. One birthday message on Facebook welcomed me to the “Senior Club.” Apparently, turning 60 bumps you into a whole new age bracket. What does that mean? Well, for starters, higher insurance premiums—got that notice earlier this year! But beyond the paperwork, it feels like a shift. This is the beginning of a new season. Some call it the “final” season of life—but I’ve decided to see it as a privileged one. Because now, at 60, I’m the youngest in this new demographic! There are perks too—senior discounts at movie theaters, restaurants, parks, museums. Priority seating on trains and planes. It took me six decades to earn these privileges, and I’ll gladly accept them! Looking...

The Secrets of a Pastor's Marriage

Recently I posted a picture of myself and a beautiful bouquet of flowers,,,,It was one of those special moments in our marriage. I had been feeling pressured with an unending to do list and preparing for a missions trip. I was sharing with Tony how stressed I was before leaving to have a quick dinner with Vickie. When I returned home, Tony suprised me with this beautiful bouquet. He just wanted to bless and encourage me.  Yes, he's sweet and thoughtful and let me just put it out there once and for all, HE IS ALL MINE :) I was surprised by the number of people who liked the post. I suppose many are "curious" what a pastor's marriage look like...is it perfect? Is it easier because both of us are pastors? I thought I share a few pictures and thoughts on the subject.   Firstly, our marriage is not perfect - it's just like yours - there are always up and downs, the good and the bad, the happy and the sad, the sweet and sour! In many ways, a ministers...

Kenya

After our missions in Tanzania, I flew back to Nairobi for a few days before I return home.  No trip is complete without seeing Lucy and the kids.   It is so good to see Lucy, well and walking without pain.  It was the school holidays so only the orphans are   around.  Saturday is also cleaning day for the kids, Lots of washing and water!  I like the new paint!   The pretty  chapel    Some income generating project that the kids are involved in - rabbits farming, chickens and a vegetable farm. They are expecting rains soon!   The toddler being held in this picture is the newest addition. She was left in the cold for at least 24 hours. The police brought her to the home. The other kids enjoy taking care of their new "sister". A group picture is a must, of course! The kids love having their pictures taken.    It was such a blessing to see Sach ...
