On Saturday, September 16th the Gambles (directors of eMi EA) had a fall birthday party for Janet, an eMi staff member. It was a lovely, breezy evening and, along with the harvest decor and food, felt almost like autumn in Missouri!
The pumpkins here are green, not orange, but are sweeter for baking!
Me, Kate and Harriet. Kate works daily at eMi and Harriet
comes in on Fridays to do laundry (by hand!)
We divided into 5 groups and each group had to design an
animal out of a carrot, potato, & peas, using a knife and tooth pick.
David’s group did this adorable duck.
Shanthi Gamble prepared homemade caramel apples & apple cider.
We also had spice cake, homemade pumpkin pie, fudge and brownies.
The adorable little girl is four year old Sophia Hoyt, daughter of Steve (eMi architect) and Melinda (eMi housing manager). They live on our compound with us, along with two year old Maddie. Sophie's wearing her uniform from a past nursery school. Almost all of the kids who go to school here wear uniforms.
