Our second week home we spent lots of time with our friends after spending the first week with family. It was a packed week but it was great to see so many of our friends at one time.
At the Jasperse's place we had fun playing games and playing with the kids, just like Tuesday nights before we came to Romania. Mark came the closest ever to winning Settlers of Katan before Kayleen pulled out a surprise win. Terri made strawberry-rhubarb crisp which was delicious.
Lexi enjoyed chainsawing Rebecca with Sam's new toy. We went to a garage sale that was a fundraiser for some friends who are coming back to Romania.
We had lunch with the Allen's and then toured Extol to say hi to old co-workers.
After dinner with Beth we played Wii with her son Kyle, who loved to play super slice.
We also enjoyed dinner at Bryan & Miranda's place, and went out to BD's Grill with friends Matt & Heather.
Binder Park Zoo was a fun day with lots of friends. Lexi wondered if the animals would bite her, and Precious was excited to see a cow. Sam had fun petting goats and we all enjoyed feeding the giraffes and seeing the animals on the African Safari.
We also enjoyed a picnic with our lifegroup at Hagar Park.
Sunday we spoke at Evergreen Ministries where Mark's sister & brother-in-law came to see us again before we left.
Evergreen will be supporting our ministry starting this fall. Quite a few of our friends go there, like the whole Jasperse clan.

We left in the afternoon on Monday and arrived safe and sound in Romania a little more than a day later. We had a great time on our vacation, it was great to see our family and friends again. We are so thankful for the support we feel and for the prayers on our behalf. We look forward to seeing everyone again when we return next time.
