Fun at the park!

Whenever we can break away from our daily grind, we try to get to the local parks to experience some good Mexican culture, as well as seeing some of that green stuff. Living in the high desert you kind of forget about the diversity of colors that you experience through the 4 seasons, but then you come across a park that has some brilliant green grass and you are transported back to the bounty of colors that is God's creation.

On this particular trip to the park, we were just enjoying the beautiful day, meeting some friends, and playing with some of the toys that Caleb got for his birthday. Unfortunantly there weren't many Mexican children but we enjoyed the time as a family.

Caleb perfecting his speech

When you have kids, it is interesting to note the different and unique ways in which they were made and personalities formed. I don't understand how it all works, but am confident that God knows and is in control. I also think that God gives us the kids that we have to both mature and make our lives interesting and fun. This video is of Caleb at the dinner table, tring to perfect his speech! This was one of those moments that we just had to laugh! Enjoy!

Gimnasio

Yesterday we had the opportunity to spend some extra time with our new brothers and sisters in Christ. The church we attend here in Chihuahua, Rei de Gloria (King of Glory), invited us to a gymnasium to enjoy some volleyball and basketball with other local churches. It was so much fun. We really enjoy the time we get to spend with these new friends, even when our brain does tire from so much Spanish. =-) And the children love to be out and about taking in their new surroundings. Little by little, we are all picking up more Spanish. More importantly, we are building relationships with the people God has placed in our lives.
