Bunco at the Leenstra's

Tonight we had Fun Night with our Bible Study Group. What a blast having a good Ol BBQ (Braai) and playing games - Bunco and Taboo. We of course had to teach the South Africans how to play Bunco. It was fun to have people over at our house. We have become a very close group. I am so happy that we were placed in this group, because I now have some very cool friends. We have so much fun together!!! Here is a couple pics of our night!

THE GIRLS: Samantha, Kelli, Mariam, me, and Robyn

Samantha has two kids: Neena (2) and Benjamin (11 months). She was the first to take me under her wings and introduce me to new people.

Kelli: She is in South Africa from the states working with Ambassadors for Sports and plays on a local woman's soccer team here

Mariam has 4 kids and they are originally from Austria: Natania (9), Joel(7), Alia (4), Noah (2)

Robyn is a newlywed with no kids

Here we are teaching Bunco to everyone:

The men were pretty competitive

While we were playing the kids were having a blast. Alex was so excited to show off his room and all his toys:

and then there was Maddie having the run of the house! Here is the sign I spotted on her door:

Here is what I found inside:

God has blessed us with new friends. We have really enjoyed meeting new people and being able to be a part of a great Bible Study Group.
