I don't even remember the day we left America. Our 10 months there seem more like a dream more than something that actually happened. When we got home, we celebrated two birthdays- Spencer's and Nate's. Spence turned 12, and Nate turned 6. Spencer got a Nintendo DS, and a Shih Tu (a smallish kind of dog that is very fluffy, hence the new dog's name: Fluffy 2). Nate got some sort of high-tech toddler toy called a Leap Pad. He can now take pictures, video-tape people, and play games. He also got an Avenger's sticker book.
 We celebrated the 5th of July (it would have been the 4th of July, but we had prayer meeting on the actual holiday) at the Tyler's. And just this past Monday, Andrew and Joey went to camp. Joey memorized a verse in Romanian, and Andrew got saved!
