Moving Around

Hello, everybody!  There is a family from Bethel Baptist Church who has offered for us to stay in their home for a while.  So far, we have been in their house for about 12 days.  We each get our own double beds.  They have woods in their back yard, and there is a stream near there.  Me and Brendin and a friend built a bridge across the stream.  But in the process, somehow I was the one who had to cross without the bridge.  It was still fun!!  For Christmas, we got lots of toys, and had lots of fun.  I haven't been able to blog in a while, because there is not much internet here. Well, I will have more to say later.  Hasta la vista!

How're ya'll doin'? That is southern talk for: How are you doing? Well, anyway, I am having a great time so far. On Sunday, we went to Hillside Baptist Church for our 3rd meeting. Then we travelled to Elkhart, Indiana. We stayed at the Comfort Suites, where we swam for about 2 1/2 hours on Tuesday night, and about 3 hours this morning. The Big Hoorah (Bro. Arnold), was in town and visited us at the motel while we swam. I said I would give him $5 if he jumped in the deep end of the pool. It was almost time for one of his meetings, but he said that he would do it for $100. We agreed to give it to him, but he wanted us to pay up at that very moment. So, sadly, we didn't get to see him soaked. So here I am now blogging. The end. See ya'll.

Vacation at Last

Hello, and welcome to my blog! Sorry I haven't blogged in a while. I am just so lazy. We are now at our grandma and grandpa's house in Texas. Travelling took forever, especially when I had to go the bathroom every 10 minutes. I guess I shouldn't have drank so much pop!! We stopped at Hillside Baptist Church and stayed with the Tolberts. The next day we left at about 7:45 a.m. That day was the longest drive in 3 days. And the longest drive just had to be in Oklahoma!! It was 9 hours of cornfields and 3 hours of cotton fields. All in all, it was a fun drive. Anyway, when we first arrived, we said our hellos and ate tacos and got settled in. The first night, Brendin and I slept on the couch. The next night, we slept in a bed. It was a long night, because I had so many jokes to tell. But then I just got punched by Brendin who wanted to go to sleep!! And when I finally agreed to stop talking, I would laugh over nothing. And get punched again. It seemed to be more funny than painful, because I would hear, "AUSTIN !!!!!". We visited at Tabernacle Baptist Church, and there was a missionary to Minnesota. Get this, his name was Austin. Maybe God just thinks that Austins are just right for the job of missionaries. We have now been here for 5 days. I forgot to tell you about the pool. I had fun sitting on Brendin's back and looking much taller than everyone else. Until he threw me backwards. We had races across the pool, contests of holding our breath the longest, and then we got out. We also got the swim the next morning. So far, it has been a great vacation!

This is Austin Feere, signing off.

Have a great day!

Yesterday was our second meeting. It started on Saturday night, and ended on Sunday night. We were at Pastor Tourangeau's church for a missions conference. We got to meet Bro. Robles. He is going to be a missionary to Mexico. Sunday afternoon, we went to the Tourangeau's house, and practically, the whole afternoon, we played on Caleb's four-wheeler. One of the best parts of the conference was that we had fellowship two nights in a row (other than the preaching!). If you would like to see a movie of us on the four-wheeler, scroll down.
Yours truly,
Austin

Me Doing a flip

THANKSGIVING!






Tis the season to be thankful ! Well then again I guess every season is the season to be thankful. On thanksgiving we went to our Nana's house . Our uncle and our aunt were there, our cousins were there, and no turkey dinner. But that is fine because on Saturday we invited some of the people who had no place to go to our house for a turkey dinner. But that is another story. We got to go in the field and help our great uncle harvest the crops! And ride on the backhoe . All in all it was a great thanksgiving.
Yours truly,
Austin

Right now I just want to say hi to all my friends who are following up on my blog.

The Blue Jay Games











These are some pictures I took from the Blue Jays ball game from Friday night. My dad had promised Brendin a ball game this year, and this was the last time his favourite pitcher would be pitching in Toronto. So my dad took us Friday night. A man from our church had been wanting to take the teens and our family to a game all year. So we went Saturday afternoon, too. But Emily, Mom, and Bethany didn't go because of Emily's birthday party. Friday was her birthday, but her friends came over on Saturday for a party. That included our neighbour and our cousin.
Well, bye for now!
Yours truly,
Austin

Champions!

This is a team picture taken after we won the championship this afternoon. We had last bats and we were down two runs. One of our teammates (Michael) tied the game with a two run double and then I drove him home and we won the championship.

MY FIRST DAY OF GRADE 4

Yesterday was my first day of grade 4. It was my brother and sisters' second day of school. Because I was too sick the first day of school, I had to stay in bed all day and sleep. We are homeschooled, and our mom is our teacher. It beats 3rd grade work any day on account of I don't have to do tablet anymore. This teacher sure assigns a lot of homework, but that is just because the curriculum tells her to. She just doesn't get that she doesn't HAVE to. I am surprised she is letting me talk like this, because she is the one typing. Now, pretty much, our whole family is sick, so it is pretty hard to do too much of school. Being homeschooled is I think a lot easier than going to public school. I am just guessing, because we don't have to walk to school or take a bus. We can practically have a break anytime we want, except for when Mom is teaching us. One of the subjects we have to take this year in school is French, because the Togolese people speak french. So I better go now,
Au revoir,

This is my dog Abigail. She is lots of trouble. She is 2 and a half years old. We have to give her away pretty soon, but I think I am ok with it now. I hope she gets a good home. I took this picture with a camera I bought by doing newspapers.

Back From Camp YES!!!


Pastor Dave Hansen
I just got back from Camp YES about an hour ago. We played lots of games, the councilors played jokes on us, we had Pastor Dave Hansen as our speaker, and the Enoch family as our camp missionaries. They were from Kenya. They told us some stories about a missionary boy in Africa, his name was Steven. I also got a Christian Character award and Pastor McClain, the director of the camp, would read letters from parents, and some were embarrasing. The preaching was really good.

Our Trip to the Creek

Yesterday we went to Red Hill Creek . This is one of my pictures standing on a big boulder I hope the goggles don''t scare you.The reason I took them was because I wanted to dunk my head under the water. My dream came true too much! I put my hands in the water like a pushup but unfortunately, I fell in ! Mom laughed, brendin laughed, my sisters laughed. I almost got mad but I found myself laughing to! But everything else went perfectly.
Bye for now,
Austin
