January 2013 Updates

Happy New Year of 2013 to our friends and family. Here are some pictures from the past month of enjoying the Lord's blessings here in Vietnam:
Cookie packages I made for Andy's students
Baked some brownies for students who tasted it for the first time

Our time with students often revolves around meals since Vietnamese love to cook! And many meaningful conversations and relationships also come from these gatherings.

Caleb's been into taking pictures lately and has captured many interesting facts of nature. We learned about the parasitic wasp that lays eggs in the caterpillar's skin and how the larvae later hatch out of the skin and make their own cocoons, the bagworm that builds its home with wood and silk and carries it wherever it goes, and the spiny orb-web spider.
Caleb discovered this caterpillar infested with parasitic wasp larvae (did not know until we googled)
