August Daze...

Pix in & around our home:

Here's a pix right outside the front of our home with one of our favorite neighbor guys letting Jah see what it's like up on his "becek" (only taxi of sorts in town)

E-pod ;)


We love that we didn't have to stage this one!

2 of our neighborhood princesses dropped by later on ;)

Lij wearing the same nightshirt Elissa wore as a child!

There's one little girl named Ipa who Lij especially enjoys having around - here she is making a tower from our clothespins:


Making our own fun while playing after dinner:

The day before fasting month began we joined many of our neighbors who went for a picnic at the beach:

Swimming after the picnic:

August brought the beginnings of our renovations - first, clearing the land:

Next, a sand party was in order...

Filling in the foundation

Wall going up

Beginnings of our roof

Can't forget the mishap during the renovations that caused a bit of a setback - a wall fell down resulting in part of our roof caving in!

Thankfully this mishap (otherwise known to Lij as the Fun Fountain) didn't seem to disturb his bucket bath ;)



Mid-August we took the wkend to celebrate our 7th anniversary out of Aceh...here's a pool shot (guys weren't too keen on the cold water)

We got one of the top floors for a fun view...

And here's Lij practicing pushing his little bro around before he makes his appearance :)

As of the posting of this, Lil D still hasn't made his exit so we have a little time to catchup on our blogging!
