Friday Nights

 

 

 

It has kind of become tradition to head to the desert after church on

Fridays. Usually we take along a few families - the more the merrier!

 We cook dinner on a fire, roast smores, and sing songs. ** Smores

are just not quite the same.  Who knew that marshmallows are made

with pork fat?  

Totally not allowed here in this Muslim country. 

 So, we eat marshmallows made from

fish fat.  Not the same texture, a bit chewier with a bit of a

fishy aftertaste.  However we are still

making smores.  Must not be that bad :)

 

 

 

 

                                   

 

Our after church crew!

 

I will never tire of this beautiful sandy landscape.

The sunsets are breathtaking.

I love the solitude of the desert.

Grade One Firsts!

Sullivan totally surprised us with his debut on the Ukulele!  Apparently

Sul and his friend Gage, have been forgoing Monday lunches

in exchange for Ukulele lessons from Miss Michelle.

 

They must have been practicing whole heartedly because

these cute boys literately "rocked" the house!

 

This assembly showed off their art talents

and all they have learned in their unit of discovery- Under the Sea.

Sul and classmates with their teacher, Mr. Lee.

 

 

After the concert the parents were invited for an art walk. 

The grade ones showcased all their hard work over the past few weeks.

 

 Totally cute!

 

Self portraits.

 

I loved this painting by Sullivan.  It is a painting of Indians fighting.

 

Awesome work Grade one!

I love how Raha School always has loads of student artwork on display.  There are

never any empty wall spaces there!
