September house work

Hi. This week we've been doing some remodeling on our house. We've brought out some money to improve our house a little bit. We're trying to re-cement our porch area, which is also our dining room & veranda. We've also bought a generator so that even if the electricity is out (Like it was all of last night) we can still charge Lisa's batteries so she can hear. It would be nice to run fans and a few lights as well...

So there has been a lot of pounding and thrashing as the builders are ripping out the old cement, then pouring the new...

Hopefully, we'll have no more holes where scorpions and other six legged friends will come from. When you get one like this walking boldly through your living room, it makes you think its time to fill some holes in the walls & cement.

Yesterday we got tired of listening to pounding, as you can imagine, and we took a motorbike ride out of Kadiolo into the countryside. We had a little picnic. That was fun. Caleb is enjoying being an only child right now, having all of mom & dad's attention. This is a pic of Caleb & Lisa on her new "old" motorbike. It is running really well now, thanks to a repair job on the carborator.

Lisa likes this bike better than mine because it is like the ones we had back in the Ivory Coast. It is also a lighter bike, and has no gear box. So she doesn't have to change gears. Some african friends in town asked my why I have a nice bike, and she has the old ugly one, though... :D

I've been working a lot teaching english to some of our students so they can start the school year stronger in english. So that has been interesting too.

But it is all for the kingdom. Pray for us as we continue to build and sustain redemptive relationships....

Thanks for stopping by,

Tom & Lisa Seward
