Wow this went a lot faster then we were thinking. Now we are working on our wave 3 of paperwork to do.

See you there! Thu, 27 Oct 2010 http://www.spoutnic.com/masse/dailynews.asp?n=246 We just celebrated this past Saturday our 11th anniversary. We went to Canada's Wonderland (without the kids!). And I also uploaded some new pictures! Tue, 9 Aug 2010 http://www.spoutnic.com/masse/dailynews.asp?n=245 Hi Everyone, we just got Internet at home!! Everything is going well. We are starting slowly our partnership development and are already in the process for our papers to move to PNG. Lots of our friends moved to PNG in the past weeks. Saturday is our 11th anniversary to Jess and I and we are leaving tomorrow for the night and are going to Canada's Wonderland Saturday (yeah! :). We will post pictures next week! Have a great weekend. Fri, 5 Aug 2010 http://www.spoutnic.com/masse/dailynews.asp?n=244 Sorry for not updating this before. We are moving tomorrow to the house beside our church. We won't have internet until I figure something good and not too expensive. :) We will have pictures to upload when we come back online (like our new "home" for our last year in Canada). By the way we started the steps for our move to PNG next July (yes because school start at the end of July, we would like to move before school start for the kids). So far everuthing is going well with the steps and paperwork. We will keep you informed when we have internet again. Thu, 30 Jun 2010 http://www.spoutnic.com/masse/dailynews.asp?n=243 This was my 2nd day of work. I should be working for around 6 months saving for our big trip over the ocean and then focus 100% on partnership development (mostly in Quebec at this time). Also Jessica's parents came to pass a few days with us today. Wed, 1 Jun 2010 http://www.spoutnic.com/masse/dailynews.asp?n=242 We just want to say thank you to all of you that came to our graduations, it was a great encouragement for us!

The next year will be a time for us to get ready to go to Papua New Guinea (PNG): To get the paperwork done and to get support to be able to go next summer. In the next year, we will be visiting friends and churches to present what we are planning to do. Also I got a full time job for 6 months. I will be starting Monday.
