Half way there!!

We are now officially past the half way point of our time in Nampa. Nathan has spent the last 4 weeks doing his maintenance training which has involved some hands on learning, as well as reading though manuals and writing tests. 
So while he has been busy with training, what have I and the girls been up too ......super cool stuff!  And keeping cool on our high 90F days.
We've checked out the parks and splash pads.

 

 

Done a lot of baking.

Mint chocolate cookies

Borrowed a sewing machine and did some fun projects

Making a romper for Aliyah

 

We've also tried some science experiments.

Stretchy slim (aka liquid starch and glue)

 

Using the slim to blow bubbles

 

As well, on weekends when Nathan is not in class, we have done some fun things in the area and with the other families.

 

Idaho Capitol Building in Boise

 

Water balloon launching.

 

BBQ at the park

 

 

 

So even though some days seem long, and we miss being able to hang out with our friends and family back home, we have been busy and blessed with some great times with our new friends here.  God has continued to show Himself faithful, and has given us joys along the way just when we need them.
