From our first prayer card picture - some time in 1998, to our latest
picture in 2006. Missionary service has certainly aged the kids! Luckily
Chris and I remain untouched. See the years pass slowly in this historic
set of family photos that document our adventure in the Philippines.

Christmas Picture 2004, No one's
favorite picture, but hey, it was the best
we could do at the time. You have to have
something to send out in the Christmas
letter.

The West Families Years of Ministry
2001 Near the dock at Corrigador Island
in Manila Bay. A favorite spot for us to
visit and stay over night. No crowds, no
pollution, good food, sites and
air-conditioned comfort. All the luxuries
of home to those who are not yet used to
the tropics.

Christmas Picture 2005, where is Matt?
He is living with my sister in Colorado.
As Matt spent the year remembering how
to be an American, we continued to
swelter in the tropics. We do have our
giant 8 foot US size artificial Christmas
tree to remind us of home.

Prayer Card Photo, November of 2002 -
great beard, except for the white spots!
Guy is getting ready for our 6-month
home assignment. A December arrival
at moms place in Colorado would be too
big a shock without some hair on your
face. Our Filipino friends were shocked.

All the adventures are in front of us and
we have NO idea.
