Repas Agape 2007

Last night was the Repas Agape. Even though we were about half the normal number, it was a really great evening. There were 34 seated in the salle(only 16 countries this year, but many first time visitors, all brought by our kids), four servers (we initiated the young generation--they were thrilled!) and Hyo-Soeng (a wonderful helper!) and I. The general ambiance was exceptional and the salle looked really pretty with the bordeaux tablecloths and pretty decorations (mainly the work of Crystal who was too sick to attend!). The skit was hilarious, the games captivating and the message timely. From all the compliments, the food was delicous :-) For dessert, we had cream puffs that I filled with the recipe from the wedding. A big hit. Of course, it was great to visit with Matthieu and Jeanine before and after, too.

I can tell by the faces that it was a success. We had our couples banquet last night as well. It went very well. I was the "guest speaker."

I guess I've been away too long!

How well we remember last year! Sorry we weren't there for this year's. :-/ Looks like you had a good time without us, though. Matthieu & Jeanine still look as happy as ever. Joy looked like she was enjoying herself, too! Too bad for Crystal!
