		<title>Things You Only See Here</title>
		<description><![CDATA[There are some things that we see here that we now take for granted.  When we first moved here, these things would&#8217;ve been very strange, but now, they&#8217;re normal.  Here are a couple of things I&#8217;ve seen this week: With the World Cup going on, it&#8217;s normal to see plenty of orange or Dutch flags.

		<title>Last Cooking Group for a While</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Tonight was the last cooking group/Bible study/prayer group until the summer is over.  The group, Ingredients for Life, was started by me and a friend, Kristi Reavis.  We started it in 2006.  The year Mike and I were in the States, the group kept going.  I took it over again last year.  I love this [...]]]></description>

		<title>WK Korts (World Cup Fever)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This is our second World Cup to experience in The Netherlands.  I can honestly say that there is nothing like it.  I&#8217;m so glad that we&#8217;re here during this.  First of all, there is orange everywhere!  The royal family is the House of Orange, so if you&#8217;ve ever seen the Dutch flag, which is red, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Zuper Zondag</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We had our first Zuper Zondag (Super Sunday) today.  We were so excited.  It&#8217;s been something that has been coming for a long time.  From now on, we&#8217;ll be having a special, evangelistic service on the second Sunday of each month. We&#8217;ve gotten a new puppet stage from BGMC money.  We also were given funds [...]]]></description>

		<title>Videos, Videos and More Videos</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We&#8217;ve been so busy working on a curriculum.  We&#8217;ve done an entire series on Psalm 23.  There are so many steps to the process.  Mike writes the lessons.  Then, we video the puppets and characters for the lessons.  Next, I edit it and get the video ready.  We have friends who translate it into Dutch [...]]]></description>

		<title>Our First White Christmas</title>
		<description><![CDATA[For Grace and me, this was our first white Christmas.  It started snowing on Thursday, 17 December and stayed over a week. It seemed like a lot of snow to us, but on Sunday, we had much more.  Grace was able to play in the snow before we went to church.  She even had a [...]]]></description>

		<title>A Little Bit of Everything</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Earlier this week, both Grace and I were sick.  Fortunately, our fevers only lasted a day or two.  It came at a terrible time though.  I guess there&#8217;s never a good time to get sick, but we got sick when we had company coming.  Our friends were sick the week before, so they had no [...]]]></description>

		<title>Autumn is definitely here</title>
		<description><![CDATA[No, we don&#8217;t have major changes in our lives.  It is feeling much more like autumn here though.  Schools here had an autumn break last week, and it was so nice to have a little bit of time to relax as a family.  We were able to go to a few museums.  Here is Grace [...]]]></description>
