The Orlich Oriel: July 2018

June 2018

Jeremy's birthday gift from his brother being used to have fun with these cool teens visiting for the summer...nintendo for the win

What did you say?

traditional dance concert Kaitlynn and I went to with some ladies

bouncy house in the heat, no problem

they were so little the first time they played in this house at the international clinic

I'm so fast...so fast.

crawling through the "tunnel" under William's bed

huge tub they got to take a bath in for the first time when Gramm's package arrived with a universal tub stopper!! Yay! They were so happy! Later, someone told me i could easily find one of those at the construction market...ok, thanks :)

clouds! it's not often we have them, but they sure are pretty when we do!

wedding in our building

girls' room

riding in the car having fun

hi friend, friend in long sleeves and pants, even though its really hot...how are you.

She thinks she's the same size as they are

kitchen in our new apartment. We have been so blessed, this kitchen is three times the size of our old kitchen! Our new apartment is all that we asked for and more. We are so thankful for a great place to land at the end of the day that is peaceful and restful. Our new apartment is more than twice the size of our old apartment but is the same price!!! In a great neighborhood with lots of kids around to play with!

living room

dangling monkey

another dangling monkey

meal planning at its best lol

bathroom 1...yes that means we have 2!!!! In Central Asia!

2nd bathroom! crazy blessing! Our apartment was two apartments that they joined and remodeled to make one bigger apartment. It has been great!

little sisters get the most love

the screw that fell out of the knife I used to make a local potato salad...found in Jeremy's bowl, while eating...soooo thankful it didn't hurt him AND that it wasn't in the local guests' bowl instead of his!!

dad and mom's room

our friend's puppy

pony tail on top lasted for 3 minutes

play dough brings smiles

walk in storage room closet thing!! yes we have a storage area this time!!!

sheep that live nearby

outside of our apartment...this area is kept extremely clean by a neighbor, so we aren't supposed to play in the dirt there...guess the drunk man on the bench knew that so he didn't lay on the bench in the clean area :)

reason she wants to keep the area clean and fusses about it if someone doesn't follow the rules....this is right beside us, most of the time because people aren't told not to throw trash on the ground. Yes, we do teach our children they are not allowed to throw trash on the ground so they have been chastised by older people for holding trash in their hand. ;/

at the park

tall ladder at the playground, must be good exercise

pilot

pretty peasant

lost tooth

playing with a fun castle set someone gave us

learning how to grill

sweet friends

climbing his first tree

i think it's a dog...jeremy saw it in the neighborhood and had to capture it on film

so much fun being dragged around on the floor

making little muffin cookies with a friend

why do they tell me not to sit in the dust dirt stuff?

pigtails! 5 minutes :)

stairs make a fun place to play on korpachas (that's the cushion mat things we sit on around a floor table and what lots of locals sleep on on the floor)
