This morning, Danny wanted to know if we could have another July 4th today.  I told him that it wouldn't come around again until next year.  He said, "Oh, can we have company when it comes around again?"  He had lots of fun with the Aaron and Siekbert children.

Amelia and Adam came down the hill about 7:30.  They wanted to get some more playing in before their 10:00 departure.  The kids had a good time with them.  

Joe preached at the fire station this morning.  Then, he came back home.  He took the kids with him to go load up Becky Pope's stuff that the Aarons were taking to Kumasi for her.  Then, they went to the Siekbert's house for a little while.  The Aarons needed to pick up some school stuff from them.  Joe had powdered milk to deliver to the Siekberts.  We bought a 25 kilo bag and split it with them.  It is half the price buying it that way than it is if you buy the individual little cans.

After breakfast, I worked on dividing up the powdered milk.  After Joe and the kids left, I decided to make some chocolate chip cookies with some of the chocolate chips that the Aarons brought.  After I started making the cookies, I remembered that I was out of eggs.  I called Joe, and he picked up some eggs on his way home.

We had lunch and then nap time.  After naps, we swam for a little while.  Danny is Mr. No Fear.  Gilbert is fine as long as his head stays above the water.  Bonnie likes to have a piggy back ride.  

We tried to clean out the refrigerator at supper time.  We had so many leftovers from yesterday.  

A demain,

Joe, Laura, Gilbert, Danny, and Bonnie
