Bonjour,
The mason finally came today. He got most of the storage shed finished. He finished the driveway. He will have to come back next week one day to do a couple finishing touches.
Lenell came over this morning to scrapbook with me. I haven’t done any scrapbooking since Danny was born. So, it was fun to do that. I worked on some new pages for the refrigerator so that we will have Gilbert and Danny on the refrigerator. She worked on some pages of pictures from my sisters’ weddings last August. I am a little behind! : )
There was a youth activity up at the church today. They had special sessions throughout the day. After the mason left, we went up there to see what was happening. The Litsons, Lenell, and the Engelharts were there too. So, Gilbert enjoyed playing with the girls.

On the way home, we stopped to see the tailor. The boss wasn’t in; so, we will have to try again tomorrow. There will be a wedding next month at the church. Here, everyone in the church makes an outfit out of matching material. I have my outfit made already. Now, we need to get shirts made for Joe and the boys.
The Engelharts are keeping Jemima, the national pastor’s three-year-old daughter for a couple days. Max and Jeanette traveled to Jeanette’s village for the funeral of her older sister. When we got home, Gilbert played with Jemima and the Litson girls for awhile. Danny found a little shovel and had a great time playing in the dirt. We just have to keep an eye on him to make sure that he doesn’t try to eat the dirt!
A demain,
Joe, Laura, Gilbert, and Danny
