October Newsletter '08

Greetings,

October has been an exciting month for us, this newsletter you'll find links to two new videos and Micah in some of the cutest pictures of him yet!

Happy Halloween

Holidays here are often different than what we're used to. Thanksgiving and the 4th of July are sometimes totally different being in another country. However, Halloween is pretty much the same. Emily and Alicia dressed up the kids and took them around the island of Spanish Wells for Trick-or-Treating. The Fox kids were a Dinosaur and a Flower, and Micah was a CandyCorn. We're convinced that he was the cutest that he's ever been.

Also, October celebrated his 6th month birthday - he's now 1/2 a year old! I'm sure that its not terribly exciting for everyone, but for us as parents, we're extremely proud!

The Bug Invasion

So, this isn't as good news, but it is October news nonetheless. We got blasted with bugs this month... like a ridiculous amount of bugs. You know in the Bible, the story about the plagues, when there were bugs crawling in their ground, and food and dishes, and houses - yeah, it was like that (well maybe not AS bad... but still).

Don't worry, the bugs are mostly dead now.

Update
Micah is almost crawling now. I made a bet last week, that he would be crawling by the end of this week, but he's still working on it. He is growing faster every day, and he's just a joy to have.

We had training going on during the last 2 weeks in October, and the class was team taught between Brad and myself and one of our graduates Donald Sweeting. It was a good class, but it was challenging material. You can expect to see a post on the class on next month's (November) prayerletter.

Finally, exciting news - we can now get packages and mail from you! If you ever want to send us anything, now you can - Emily set up an account with a flight ministry that serves missionaries throughout the Caribbean. Our mailing address is:

Ryan and/or Emily Flunker
c/o Agape Flights GHB 21192
100 Airport Avenue
Venice, FL 34285
