Doug and Kara Shaylor Just another weblog 
Since I won’t be spending Christmas with my sister Laura and her family this year, Doug worked it out for me to go spend time with them over Thanksgiving. We had a very special time together as a family, although we all missed having Doug there!
One of Laura’s good friends knew that I was coming, and gave us some money to do something special with. So Laura and I were able to go to a bed and breakfast about 40 minutes from her house – just the two of us! We had a very fun time together – great memories!
One of my highlights was playing our own rendition of "American Idol" with Nate, Brandt and Kenya. One of us would be the singer trying out, and the other three would be Randy, Paula and Simon! We had a LOT of laughs!
I was very thankful to have a chance to share at Laura’s church, which is one of our supporting churches. It was a joy to be able to share about what God did in the Yagaria during the Dedication of the revision of the New Testament. Carol Kaptain, the woman who did the translation, is from their church, and it was a privilege to share about that special time (which Doug and I were able to be at in PNG!) with the folks from her church. She had even sent a Yagaria Bible as a thank you, and I was able to present it! Wow, what an awesome privilege.
Now Doug and I are back together, and looking forward to a fun-filled Christmas with his family. His brother and sister in law are visiting from Venezuela, so it will be the whole Shaylor clan together!
