Bibi: Keynote Speaker on Health

Yesterday, Bibi one of the keynote speakers invited to speak to a group of 600 people in Los Angeles, CA, on the subject of vegetarianism and health.

She was INCREDIBLE!! The 1 hour presentation was clear, impactful and comfortable. Many people mentioned how helpful her tips were and we will keep in touch with the people who extended the invitation to follow the long-term impact.

I'm so proud of Bibi, especially giving such an AMAZING presentation on her first go... The group was Spanish speaking, so it was natural for Bibi to speak in her native tongue, and she definitely has a talent there that she might be interested in cultivating!!

It is exciting to see where and how God will present opportunities to serve Him if we don't limit what He can use us for.

Wildflower Vespers

Brianna, Pachi and Mommy spent a terrific afternoon and sundown experience at the "Wildflower Cafe" in Exeter

Lake Shasta Adventure

From July 9th-16th we lived a water filled adventure at Lake Shasta. Ampee and Amee hosted a weeklong stay at a rented houseboat and Crystal's parents, the Trujillos, Ken & Crystal and us enjoyed each other's company, wake boarding, swimming, reading, jet skying, playing rook and many other relaxing activities

Happy Birthday, Tio Ken!

Last Tuesday, we were honored to have Ken & Crystal visit us from Saipan. We prepared a special meal to celebrate Tio Ken's 35th birthday and spend a great evening visiting with Ampee & Amee as well

After dinner Briana treated Amee, Tia Crystal and Mommy to real tea on her porcelain mini tea set. So sweet!!!

Brianna showed off her new abilities: being able to freely swim in the pool. Our fearless mermaid swimmed back and forth the width of the pool to the pleasure and clapping of the whole family. Now she goes anywhere and is perfecting her "style" every day. Bravo, Bri!

Happy Birthday, Tio Ken!

Happy 35th to you!!

We can't wait to see you in a few days. We'll have a lot of fun in the water again! Love you,
Jer, Bibi & Bri

Making first lettuce salad

Brianna hizo su primera ensalada de lechuga hoy al mediodia. Y tambien se encargo de ir comiendo los pepinos que veia. La ensalada salio riquisima!

Recien levantadita de la siesta! Hoy andaba con todas las pilas!

Una preciosura! Esta en una etapa tan hermosa! Justo ahora le estamos ensenando a relacionar las letras del abecedario con los animales y ella solita esta aprendiendo que oso empieza con "o." Tambien nos sugiere que cualquier cosa que necesitemos vayamos a "compai a Target." Es para comersela a besos!

Graduation Day at VBS

On the final day of this adventure, Brianna was crowned a princess! She got her crown from the King and Queen, a Bible and a certificate. Several adults commented on how mature, poised and well-adjusted she is. She was among 4 year olds and above and she did great! Kudos to Bri!


Too precious!

Today, Sunday, June 29th Bri started to swim all by herself in the jacuzzi! Yeah!
