Moving Days and Hot Dog Parties

We are officially moved in to our new house, as of yesterday at about 1pm. We had some GREAT friends who came to help us, but unfortunately, we picked the hottest day to move :o( Don't get me wrong, every day here is hot....but yesterday was HOT. Our school was gracious enough to loan us one of their vans, so, 3 trips later...we were finished. Besides the heat and profuse sweat dripping from all areas, the move was one of the quicker and smoother ones I've ever done! Here are some pictures from our move:



Here's Brian hanging out the side of the van, holding onto our possessions!



Packed out: Jill (in between boxes) and Brian hanging on! Moving-Cambodian style!



How many people does it take to move a mattress? (A lot...it's heavy and awkward..one of those memory foam types)

::Hot Dogs::

Our good friends the Weiss Family invited a bunch of people over to their house for Hot Dogs. WOW!! We haven't seen a "normal looking" hot dog since we've been here, but the ones they cooked were fabulous! It was a perfect way to end a busy day, and we really enjoyed our time there with the 9+ kids running around, and all of the good company with our adult friends. We ate, laughed, played new games, enjoyed an incredible full rainbow from their rooftop, and were blessed by the generosity of the Weiss's. Again, because the camera is always with us...here are some pictures from the night.







An awesome full rainbow that literally stretched across the sky of Phnom Penh!!



The sunset from the Weiss Rooftop. Incredible.


Overall it was a successful, tiring, sweaty day. We are glad to be able to share our experiences here with you back at home, or wherever you might be reading from!
