Filipino faces and alleys

Soon after we (me i.e. Naomi, cousin Lydia and Bethany) arrived in Manila we went exploring. 






Lydia brought her camera along on our walk. . . . many of the people were excited to have their picture taken!

Wedding Pictures!


-Bridal party-


 We are thinking that there were about 300 folks there.

 Grandma and usher Jonathan

 Here she comes!

 flower girl Dora and ring-bearer Benji

 Mr. and Mrs. Jonathan Shofstahl

 Mother of the groom and usher Uncle Dan





 Daniel Shofstahl family, precious pic!

 "With this ring..."

Notice in the picture above how Preacher appears to be about half an inch short.  (He is right under Sarah's elbow.)  Pretty neat!

Here is the family Susanna married into. Jonathan is the last born so all those little kids are his nieces and nephews.

Whalen men

We will have to post more wedding pics for you all.  So check back soon!
