The wedding shower.... Two of our friends are getting married this month and we thought we'd celebrate by throwing them a shower/party...
Showers are definitely not an Indonesian tradition so it was more of a party and showering of prayers, blessings, and love... along with a little spa basket gift.

I'll make sure to post some photos of the traditional Javanese weddings.

Teaching the kids at Kenjaran




These little ones are precious. We study math and reading each week as well as sing some songs with them. Their favorite is one in which the chorus translates "Turn to the left, turn to the right, turn all around, find another friend"

Happy Candy Harvest Day

So, the frosties were kosong (empty) but we drank some ice lemon teas and cokes and played mow for an hour or so while the Wendy's staff set up for what seemed to be a thrilling Halloween party. I'm still not sure what the "Blinkz" is supposed to mean. Josh also got to take a turn with pin the mouth on the pumpkin at our Pumpkin Party. No, there was no candy corn around or trunk or treating, but we still had fun!
