Puttin' on the Ritz

We spent some time earlier this week playing dress-up at our favorite Asian market. They have the cutest Ao Doi (Vietnamese dresses), shoes, parasols, non la (conical hat) and of course lots of "fun" foods. We went home with some cute hair clips and some Vietnamese goldfish (like our regular goldfish snack but they are salted).
Nehemiah has discovered all the fun things in our drawers. He is now into eating toothpaste, hiding daddy's contact case and the best one was busting the large glass bottle of Obsession cologne all over the bathroom floor.
He also loves all his sister's toys- here with her beaded necklace. This has caused some sibling squabbles. We had a lot of talks about sharing this week.
Resting with daa. The little bit of white under Nehemiah's head is Adam's back.
"Tiny Dancer" has been one of Avi Joy's nicknames since she was little. She is fully living up to this nickname. There has been much dancing, prayer songs and performances this week!
Just soaking in the beauty of dance.
Gettin' kisses from great-grandma Fern. She will be hitting 90 soon, amazing!
The kids after church. They had a great time showing all their skills. Walking skills and Hammertime skills.
Looking forward to this week... Back to school, first dance class and sharing a major blooper is soon to come!

Message from church today: Working together... watch it online.
"I always pray with joy because of your partnership in the gospel."
Philippians 1:5

Blessings,
Adam, Natasha, Avi Joy and Nehemiah
