More May vacation pictures


Here are some more pictures from our vacation on the island of Saaremaa. We went to an open air museum, but Peter enjoyed the toys the most.

We saw one of the wooden windmills that dot the island.

And even got to go inside it.

The trees were just beginning to bloom.

We also saw how to grind grain with a real grinding stone.

They also had a traditional Estonian swing, which scared Peter a little.

So Elizabeth and Tim jumped on to help him!

Women's outing


At the end of May, we took the ladies from our NELK Club (like Home League) to visit several churches in Western Estonia where the mother of the leader is actively involved. It was a nice time for Tim and Elizabeth to be together too!

We had a meal with our ladies and the ladies from the other church.

We also visited a castle in the city of Haapsalu. Elizabeth had a chance to try on real chain mail--which was very heavy!

We also climbed to the top of a bell tower.
