Fiona video

Youth Group on Friday night. We watched Facing the Giants. Anyone seen it? It was a bit extreme until you remember the stories of Joseph and David. God can do anything!
Anyway, this is Fiona keeping herself busy.

Home again, Home again...

So it's back to normal at the Seybold household. Okay, so I don't always pose like that, but yesterday was #29 for me!! Catja took me out to her favorite Italian restaurant and we had wonderful steaks and great conversation.
And for those of you who thought Fiona would never eat anything besides kickin nuggets and french fries after doing so all summer, she is doing fine with veggies. I make a lot of casseroles and she hasn't turned one down yet!
And as the picture of Brett might suggest, he is checking things off his to-do list right and left.
It feels good to jump back into life over here.

Aufwiedersehen!!

"Oh, mom!" Sometimes I feel like my two-year-old is going on 13.

Pebbles Flinstone

Mr. and Mrs. Comp came to visit. Fiona forced them to watch Cars with her.

Zach and Alyssa came to talk about Germany and hang out. We had a fun time playing the game Apples to Apples.

Celebrating my birthday, that's right, a little early with my friend Erin.

And sorting clothes at the church with Kristin for Master Provisions.

So that concludes our summer in the USA. We are looking forward to going home, but will miss so many people. Brett and I were at Wal-Mart today and I decided that it is the modern convience I will miss most. And like the Canadian Geese, we outta here!

Winding down...

Grant and Brittany got married!!!! Quite the event!! It was beautiful and amazing and we're so glad we were able to be a part of their day!!

But Fiona decided that she wasn't getting enough attention, so she locked herself in the men's room at the reception. Brett broke through a window with one of the chef's and saved the day, but she was quite beside herself. A little dramatic, but it wasn't five minutes after the fact that she was back to dancing and getting the attention she so desparately craved.

(There'll be pictures later.)

This week we're in Cincinnati. Brett will be preaching in Chapel at Cincinnati Christian University, our alma mater. It's quite an honor. We've also been presenting our work in classes and getting to know students/encouraging missions in any way possible.

Fiona and Cory


We stayed with Ron Vance, Fiona's new best friend

Joel and Emily Harder

We'll be in Maysville, KY this weekend and then back in Brazil, IN to close up shop and get ready to go home!! Not looking forward to the plane ride with Fiona, but I suppose it is inevitable.

Marcel kam zum Besuch...

O, moment, falsches Bild!
Wrong picture!

We sent him off to catch dinner. We didn't eat very well that night.

Marcel helping out on the farm, getting tomatoes ready to can.

Hanging out at Cory's house.

Fiona was very happy to see, as she calls him, Cell.
Her new trick has been actually posing for the picture and saying "cheeeeeese".

This is a little fashion show after having gone shopping. Doesn't he look cute?! The flip flops are my favorite touch!!

Marcel and Fiona riding in the van, not sure what she's looking for up his sleeve.

Hartford, Kentucky--Fiona really enjoyed playing with Evan Mayden aka "boy".

The Maydens and the Seybolds

So we're having a good time, seeing and meeting good people, but we're ready to go home!!
