Alien Carrotts


These were the weirdest batch of carrots i've ever seen! When I bit into them, the middle had this strange texture. So I tried cutting one open, and the outside came off kind of like a shell and on the inside were these spikes! I don't know what happened. I still ate the outside and just threw away the insides...I'm doing Ok

Angela and Anna's 7th Birthday Pary

Baby Kate


She was just so cute in her stroller with her little umbrella on top!

Fins!


Maria and her 2 Finish friends from Finland. It was Maria's last day in Macedonia :( She was here for one month on vacation. But WoW! She had a huge impact on the coffee house. She was able to learn the language just as well as me only from conversations! And in about 2 months! Amazing! I hope she comes back again soon

Presidential Parties



Sunday night as Melanie and I were walking to Brian and Mandy's to feed Cloud, we happened upon a huge concert! The whole city was flooded all day with charter buses from all over Macedonia. There were large groups walking around carrying flags and wearing hats to represent their presidential party. When i asked some one what was going on, he said this is the new presidential choices. Ohrid was on fire that night! There was a huge rock concert! Flags flying! Everyone celebrating! I even heard some fireworks going off around midnight.

Goodbyes


This Sunday was our last day with the Zaevs. They have been such a blessing to all of us! They were here for a month from America visiting Zoran's family. Now they are back in West Virginia. They have been working with the Macedonians here who speak both Enlgish and Macedonian fluently, to translate more materials for evangelism. They will be having a Macedonian family live with them for 6 months. They plan to come back for another visit next year :) It's hard to say goodbye, specially to people that you see every day and share the same heart with. But please pray for Angela and Zoran as they continue their ministry in the states. Of course this isn't a picture of everyone from the church because Brian and Mandy are still in Greece with Brian's parents. We hope they have a great time and a safe return!
