Last Monday started off with a bang! James took Ellen and Barry for a Doctor visit and by the time they got back home, Ellen had started labor! So, on November 17th Mark joined the missionary family here in Curitiba.
Thank you Lord for the safe arrival of this new little one.
Hannah was thrilled to hold the new little baby, here less than 24hrs old! She was excited to learn that one day she too would be a mommy.
Thank you for all the friends you have given us here.
We had our Thanksgiving dinner on Friday the 21st this year. We always have it early here in Curitiba because every year on Thanksgiving Day, the Seminary has its Graduation Banquet. We were so thankful to have 23 people at our thanksgiving.
Thank you for many helping hands who make burdens light.
We had a turkey and a pernil which is a hunk of pork. The only hams here are lunch meat hams and that didn't sound appetizing!
Thank you for all the fun little surprises you have for us.
We had a great day of fun and fellowship. We had our dinner at the MK school so there was lots of room. The kids found all the fun games hidden away in the cabinets. James put up the volleyball net and a few of us burned off some of those calories.
Thank you for healthy bodies.
One of the moms told the thanksgiving story to the kids and then they colored cornucopias. Hannah was having trouble making her fruit so Daniel helped her!
Thank you for families and the love they share.
We couldn't resist putting in a picture of our Jer with his new friend Luke. They are so cute running around with their little white hair, our little Pollocks(as the brazilians often refer to them!)

Thanks for sharing your Thanksgiving celebration with us. It was also fun to be able to Ellen and their new baby. I'm so glad they are there with you all now. Glad you all had a nice week of Thanksgiving.
You'll have to check out the Christmas designs for your blog. I changed mine today. It was REALLY hard to choose. I might change mine several times throughout the month.
Love you and look forward to actually being able to talk to you soon.
Thank you for your great postings! I love to see what you all are doing over there! We love you and are so thankful to count you as dear friends!
-Shawn and Shannon VanderHart
