Boogie on the Bricks

Cole and Lydia have gotten to be good friends with the other missionary kids, especially Chloe. She is three and Andrew, from another family, is four. We were invited to a welcoming dinner for all of the new Engage students which is always fun for us because our kids all play together and we get to eat and talk! To find out more about what Engage ministry is check out http://www.engageinmissions.com/

Our kids cannot take a normal photo!






Cole keeps busy collecting caps to bottles for a future craft with Mimi when we get back. He is also learning to take pictures with our camera. Here's another one he took.

















Our Gangsta kids. We have no idea why they both did these "signs" with their hands but we thought it was funny. Notice Lydia's Mexican hair again. Almost everyday, she comes home with a new style. I'll post another one sometime.





















Overall, things are going well. We went to another church today. Almost every church service here is 11-1:30pm which is in the middle of our lunch time but they all eat lunch here around 2pm! (We've gone out for tacos around 11am for lunch before and eat with people who are there for breakfast.)
So the church we went to today has an early service at 9am. It was still long but easier on our appetites! The services here are great. Most of the songs are ones we know, just in Spanish. And Steve understands almost the whole sermon so he leans over and translates for me. The kids aren't as shy going into kids church since they spend the whole week with Spanish kids (as Cole calls them!)

We do miss WSU! We are praying for everyone there as school starts this week.

I know exactly what that hand signage means..."I miss Mimi!" Ohhhhh...I miss you, too!
