This week we had an unexpected surprise…we got to meet Becca’s newest cousin, Colette Elisse Sutter. Becca absolutely loved meeting Colette. Colette turns 7 weeks this Friday. Becca really wanted to hold Colette, but she was a little nervous at first. We also had a mini impromptu Sutter reunion. It was good to spend some time with family. I love the pictures of my grandma’s and Becca’s blue eyes.
Josh is having a profitable week of research. He’s been able to work with several Jarai speakers and is working on recording, translating, and analyzing Jarai stories. He’s also using the extra time with Jarai speakers to learn more Jarai. On Sunday he went to a special Jarai picnic for a group of Catholic Jarai. He heard the traditional gongs played at a picnic in a park and heard a Jarai Catholic priest speak.
Becce continues to be her very fun self! She’s sporting a new hairdo and is actually not pulling it out! She enjoyed playing the piano with Uncle Sam. A big thanks to Sam for the beautiful pictures he took during our visit with them.
Oh, I am so jealous. I wish the reunion could have been just four weeks later. Oh well. I guess I will get the Piscataway family to myself. 🙂 I LOVE the pic of you and Becca in the kitchen at home. Your hair is getting very long! Beautiful! So glad you both got to meet Colette! I think I also love how Becca is distracted by Colette in the big family picture! Too cute. Love to all!
yeah good times!
Sooo glad you got to see so many family members while you were with your parents. Love the pictures of Becca with her new cousin, Colette. She looks so gentle with her. The pigtails are darling on Becca, esp in the little orange “Heidi” dress. Also good to see Josh with some of his consultants. Sounds like a profitable week.
She looks like she is loving hugging on that baby! So glad you got to see family while Josh was away.
