We were blessed with a flight to see Uncle T and Aunty Amber and Emie. The boyz first time on an airplane you can well emagine the excitement...

JANUARY
Praying Gods special blessings on you and
your families for 2013…
Our year kick started fast and busy right
back into the quick swing of things – Mark preached the New Years service and
he so enjoyed being back in the pulpit after our much needed rest. Tan will be heading up the Ladies ministry
again for 2013 together with a wonderful team of 12 very special ladies. Together we will be overseeing the Sunday
School and try to implement some changes to encourage more children to
attend. Pray for us in this space as we
are new to this portfolio – Tan is very enthusiastic and excited to be working
with children and knows that this is in for a huge time of learning and growth
in the Lord through this new opportunity in ministry. Our Bible studies all started this month and
everyone is keen to be back together studying God’s word.
Troyd turned 6!!! WOW can you believe it –
God is great, God is good. What a
blessing this little man has been in our lives we praise the Lord for the
special gift in him. We celebrated his
birthday with a Pirate party at the beach.
They wore pirate hats, swam in the rain, dived off and had rides on the
boat, had balloon sword fights, and water bomb throwing and best of all dug for
treasure on the beach - aaarrrrrgh matie it was a swash buckling time
:) Tan had a fun time planning
all the party activities as well as decorating the treasure map cake. – Happy Birthday special Troydie

First day of School for Treyson and Tryston…
Yes that is it where has 4 years gone J They got themselves all dressed with shooz,
hats and bags (big enough to climb into) and headed out to Grade 00. Our big boys were so excited all full of BIG
smiles. They have a lovely teacher and
are very very happy to be at Troydies School with him. They so enjoy the playground and their
favorite activity in the classroom is painting!!
Troydie is in grade Senior R this year – we
are so excited for him as he is loving learning his letters and numbers. A huge highlight for him every week is his
swimming class where he is swimming with “big arms”. He has homework every day and it has been the
cutest thing – the twins feel so left out that they ask Tan everyday “mom, do
we have homework today?” Tan has planned
out a homework schedule for them with coloring in, sticker crafts, shapes, colors
and picture matching games just to keep them entertained and make them feel
important too ;)
Thanks for your love, support , care and
prayer for us – God bless in Heaps
Mark, Tan and Troyd, Treyson and Tryston
