And a village visit

 Journey makes her self at home, goes in, and looks for the toys.

 There is about to be a top contest in this village.  The men are getting their tops ready and practicing.

 The champion top, which spins the longest without being knocked out of the ring can win $3,000!

Second beach day.

 We took these two girls, one is a teacher and the other her 3rd grade nicer, to the south beach of our island.  They have never really been anywhere on the island outside their village, market, and school.

 We ended up sitting under a tree and playing in the sand the whole time.  No one even got in the water but I think everyone enjoyed the time.

 Haven has a passport!  She's an official American.

 My big girl dressed up for a date with Daddy.

This is really watter and the top is really on but Journey likes to "drink" it.

 Time for a trim.

 And this smile makes my day!

"Ok Momma, enough photos." :O)

 at a wedding. :o)

 This grandma was so cute in her traditional dress.

 The girls look so much alike.  Journey just has darker hair, skin, and eyes than Haven.

From top to bottom.  Haven, Journey, Haven, and Journey

Haven's real smile!!!!

We went back to the birthing center where the girls were born for Haven's polio vaccine.  Journey asked for "more baby" and to go back to the "baby house". :o)

Flash! and she's off!

 I sadly didn't take many photos during Idul Fitri, the end of fast celebration.  This one I did take.

 Haven's now two months old.  Growing, gurgling, smiling some, and falling into a schedule.

 This one's for my Momma, she sent me chili cloth and this is the back of the dress that both girls got.

 Ramadan has been over for one week but some people will fast the following week for more points.  So people here have a celebration one week after, most of them going to the beach.  We had breakfast with friends.

 Washing dishes.

 I think Haven was sleepy but our friends are sure she saw the ghost of the grandmother that died recently.  They pulled on one ladies hair and it made a popping sound, a sure sign of meeting a ghost.  And this man blew on Haven's belly.  She fell asleep after this.  I doubt that Haven's crying had anything to do with Grandma and I'm not making fun of my friends, I just want you to know what life is like here.

After the visit.  I can't get a good photo of both girls in their dresses together… but I try. :o)
