Saturday I went with Tim and Jahnet to Khon Kaen. We spent the afternoon with a couple in the church, Kurt and Pbouy and then went down to the pool in their development where Tim baptized Pbuoy. We had a really nice time with them in their home Pbouy made Gwaytheow (thai noodle soup) for us and it was really good.

I came out to my car to go to dinner this afternoon and was fascinated to see that a spider had built this beautiful web during the night and day. It was perfect and beautiful especially with the late afternoon sun rays shining through it. It was attached to the truck as well and I was sad to have to leave and destroy all that hard work. It was so perfect. I mean I'd be willing to bet that it you were able to measure it somehow you'd find the spaces were all even.

I gave Don my number 82 shirt cause I didn't want people reading me. He enjoys wearing it around the house.

My friend Raht and one of the best friends I've ever had. I'm so going to miss her.

Happy Birthday Lydia! Here with Fawng. This is Dragon fruit. It comes in pink and white and pink is the best, but then isn't everything better in pink?

Lydia loves brownies so I made some for her birthday. They're yummy!

I was invited to dinner at the Luelai's. It's Lydia's 15th birthday and a special last dinner with them for me. Raht made many of my favorite dishes. We had Panang (a pork and eggplant coconut stew) another pork and cucumber stirfry and fried fish. It was all great and I got stuffed.

Jahnet took Raht, Lydia, the girls, and me to NongKhai today so that I could do my last 90 day check-in. Then we went over to the river market and did bit of shopping. After that we went to KFC at the mall. It was a really nice, fun day.

We were using the timer on the camera, but it started to fall into the glass I had set it on and then it went off. Raht is trying to catch it here. I was funny.
