What a wonderful man!
Ok, so maybe I haven't written much about Mr. Motorcycle. :) Some of you are thinking that is an understatement... So, here's the latest scoop for those who care:
He's great. As we learned from the Meyers Briggs in premarital counseling this week, my complete opposite... In fact, I an often surprised (good surprise) about the things he says and the new facets of his character I get to discover and experience.
Being the extravert that he is, Mr. Motorcycle loves to host things- parties, get togethers, games, bbqs (here we call them braiis). Being the introvert that I am, I enjoy people in small groups, and serving at get togethers, I am generally not the one to put together large events, but often enjoy them...
For an early birthday present (because of the tourist schedule) Mr. Motorcycle rented a houseboat (a friend of ours owns a houseboat company here on the lake).
He planned a big braii with games and a classic Lake Kariba sunset (well, God planned it, but Mr. Motorcycle took advantage of it). We had such a good time with the rest of the missionaries down here and a few visitors that happened to be at the base at the time.
We had plenty of meat ;), a whole spread, brownies (to die for- thanks to Cathy who sent the mix and Susan who made them), and two rousing games of Settlers of Catan (one of which I won- hah- Susan won the other)!
It happened to fall close to the base leader's 25th wedding anniversary as well as some visitors' anniversary and we got to celebrate their marriages and hear stories about how the couples on the boat met.
And I was just beginning to think the bush can get rather boring at times... :) Not with Mr. Motorcycle around!

Hi! This is Mike's brother, Riley. Congrats on the up coming wedding. I hope all your plans are going well. Could we please have your e-mail address, since my brother will not e-mail us back. Ha Ha.
Thank you

I miss you and love you so much. I have you in my thoughts and prayers.
