Jesus has arrived

Our Darling Marianne today has learned alot about Jesus today, so our little Method Actress decided to be Jesus today... Pretty much all day, nursery, dinner,...bed....

Hello Marianne,
I'm not Marianne, I'm Jesus. . .. 
Ok ...
And this (sit and scoot toy) is my donkey.. 
Would you like a drink of Water
Huh. . . sigh. . . In Jerusalem we don't drink water very much.. 
Oh really what do you drink?
Um mostly just juice. 
 Here I am Jesus has arrived (scooting in on her donkey)...Hey Mom, You can be Mary...

Of Course Jesus wasn't so Reverent during the Prayer or Easter Message
Jesus Fold your amrs, Jesus always prayed
No! Jesus doesn't pray! (screaming)

Devin was telling the story of Easter, and instead of saying "then Jesus did. . . " He had to state "then You (meaning Marianne pretending to be Jesus) did. . ."


Spencer came running into the dining room tonight and announced that he had Shared the Gospel! Awesome so happy.

"Yep I told Cambell, she can't swim on Sundays."- Right on Bud.
 The Easter Bunny came

 Sorting out the loot
 In my Easter Bonnet, with all my frills upon it, I'll be the grandest Lady in the Easter Parade
We got a bit tired towards the end of Easter. . .  Time for Bed. 
HAPPY EASTER

Moving a bit Early


We got a screeming deal to ship our stuff home, the catch was we had to ship it home last Friday, three weeks before our flights left. . . slightly inconvenient.. . but with help from a few friends, we managed. Thank you!

 Here is Juliette enjoying the commotion
 The kids thought the mountain of boxes was the best things they ever!

 No Can opener, did you know you can do it with a spoon. . . sort of . . .
Oh and we have to paint the apartment, so here are my two painters

Farmmart, Bowling, Disney on Ice

There is a spot near Choa Chu Kang called Farmmart, it has a few animals that you can feed and some random stores you can walk around in. We went with some friends on a Saturday, The Peterse's and the Lao's 
 Spencer and Tanner feeding the birds
 Marianne and Anna feeding the fish and acting like animals. :)

 Feeding the Fish
For Playgroup last week, the kids went bowling and had a blast!

Here is Juliette laying out tanning, She doesn't get much cuter huh? 

Last Saturday we went and saw Disney on Ice, it was Marianne's three year old Birthday Present. She of course Loved it!!!

Moving Back

A while back Devin looked into a company called White Hall Ventures that our Friend Spencer Taggart was running and wanted him to be apart of, we thought it sounded really interesting  But probably not the right time for what we were doing. Since we had a full life here in Singapore.

However Devin talked to Spencer recently and Spencer mentioned that 2 of their main guys were leaving and they were looking for someone and would really like to make Devin an offer. They made Devin an offer in 2 days and we fasted and prayed about it and felt like it was the right opportunity professionally and for our family.

Devin is so excited for a new job working as a Manager with White Hall Ventures and working with one of his best friends. 

So we are moving back April 10th and start work in Salt Lake City on May 1st! Sad Sad Sad to be leaving Singapore, but very excited for a new job and adventure in Utah!

Kids Quotes

We were talking one day about being sick and I brought up this conversation with Spencer.. .
"Did you know that Grandpa is a doctor?" - Na
"He is"- Spencer
"Yes a really good one, He is even an specialist, an expert"- Na
"What is an expert?"- Spencer
"That means your really good at something"- Na
"Oh Grandpa is an expert Fort Builder"
"Yep he sure is :)"


I looked over at Devin and Marianne and this is what I heard. . .

". . . And girls just talk"-M
"Oh is that right :) I didn't know that about girls"- Daddy
"Yea girls just talk and talk and talk and talk"- M
"Oh what do boys do"-Daddy
"They Fight"
"You know what dad's do? They work and when movies come on they watch them"-M

Prayer

Dear Heavenly Father, Help us to not hit, not punch, not scream, not yell, not cut off people's heads, bless the food In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen!
From Marianne

Good thing we only cut off people's heads on Wednesdays around here. :)
