big fish

Braden caught a fish the other day with our friend Jimmy while we were at Staff Stimulus. All his friends had a big time watching him reel it in. The meeting took place at a small city about 2 hours from Belo Horizonte. The hotel fazenda (farm hotel) where we stayed had a big playground, horses, and paddle boats for the kids. Not to mention a pool.

Things with Braden’s school are going well. He’s learning to write. The other day he practiced writing our address, so maybe soon he can start sending some letters. He’s learning lots about the Bible, history and he’s even starting to read 3-letter words.

Amy and Braden just finished reading The Apple and the Arrow, a story about William Tell and the birth of Switzerland (historical fiction). Braden loved the part about William shooting the apple off his son’s head.
