This is a video Moriah and I made for her friends back home in Tennessee. It is a fun little narrated slideshow chronicling the adventures of Moriah this summer.
My favorite is “This is house that we live in now, its orange… Here it is, this is the one!”

Araw ng wiki (‘Day of Language’) – ‘Araw ng wiki’ is a celebration of the national language here in the Philippines. Moriah’s school did a short performance for the parents.
The adventures continue even without the teams here. Below are some fun pictures from the last two weeks. We are meeting so many people and having a good time. Moriah is loving school and really making some progress. We will miss our friends, but we are excited to forge new relationships here. Keep praying!
Below are some of the pics of the kids from the last few weeks. Some highlights! Moriah felt back at home safe and secure in the arms of Ronald Ethan still loves slides, even the bumpy filipino kinds. Tricycle rides are always a highlight for the kids. Moriah made instant friends with a Hanjin Employee, Boyet, who also has a 4 year old child who lives hundreds of miles away. We had a chance encounter with the mayor of Olongapo tonight as we were writing this update. Moriah made friends with a neighborhood girl name Joy. She is also 4 years old and the two of them hit it off like best friends.
Well I finally settled on a phone, and one of my criteria was that it had a good camera on it. So here are some of the images captured off the new phone. They also happen to do a good job highlighting our life the last two weeks.
This is a fun clip from the Olson family Thanksgiving out in the sticks of Tennessee. I’m sure this scene will be repeated in a little over a month as we head back down to Florida to celebrate our little sister’s wedding. Kristin, seen in the video above, is getting married this coming October, and we are thrilled about all that God has in store for her and Alejandro. Love you Kris, welcome to the family Alejandro, I know you like to Salsa, but try learning a few moves from our daughter!!!
A Dance We Like to Call the Mo Mo Sita Dance, here Moriah is being instructed by her daycare teacher, Amanda Davis.
