Easter Prep Work

Last night the PYP kids were busy prepping the Easter bags for Kulin. Kulin is the same place all the soccer balls were delivered too in December. The kids accomplished a huge amount in a relatively short amount of time. They made 100 bracelets, put together 200 party treat bags, and packed 200 personal care kits. The kids were great and worked really hard. They had a lot fun in the process too. Saturday all the bags will be delivered and given out at the Kulin Easter party.

That's a lot of toothpaste!

A huge thanks to all of you who donated toothbrushes and toy cars.

Cars ready to be packed.

Making bracelets is FUN!

Milena and Sydney started making bracelets on Thursday. Thanks girls!

Check out this tractor!

The girls are busy getting the gift bags ready for the girls of Kulin.
Each bag had a bracelett, two sets of barettees, four ponytail holders and two pieces of candy.

The bags with school supplies all waiting for the personal care items.

The kids added toothpaste, toothbrushes, floss, and bars of soap to each of the bags.

The Assembly line busy at work!

The boys had a lot of fun packing the little cars into bags.
The boy treat bags included a toy car, and two pieces of candy.

ISR Easter Party

Yesterday was the annual ISR Easter party. The party started at five because we had to wait for it to cool down so all the candy would not melt. :) The kids did not mind the late start because it meant that they would get to hunt for eggs in the dark. How fun is that?

Brooklyn trying to not drop her egg. I love the look on her face.

Water Relay - the first team to fill up the water bottle with is the winner. Sydney was a good sport because she had a lot of little kids on her team. She was pretty wet by the end of the race.

Brooklyn has on a flashing whistle because her Mom is a safety freak.

Last year I had the hardest time finding her in the dark. This year she was easy to spot.

The Easter bunny made a visit to Rumbai.

The Many Colors of the Jungle

I thought it would be fun to show you just a few of the many colors we see in the jungle. All these photos were taken while walking around our neighborhood this evening.

I thought you might enjoy a quick tour of our house in Sumatra. The pictures are from Christmas but they will give you a feel for what our house is like.
