Reaching out to the comunity...

Yesturday we finally had our clothes giveaway at church. We had collected clothes all year. Yesturday we had "tortas" for lunch and members of the church and community came and recieved clothes. We did get a few new contacts, so hopefully something will come of that! Overall it was a great day! Posted by Picasa

Well...

Let's just say Alison was in a bit of a bad mood when we tried to get a picture of her "shinner". She fell off her chair and hit her face right on her table. Poor thing, luckily I had chewable tylonal on hand, but the next morning she was still not to happy about the large bruise under her eye. (For the Grandparents, she is doing just fine now. She has a large bump and bruise but it isn't hurting anymore.) Posted by Picasa

16 de Septiembre!! Vive Meixco!

Last night (the 15th) we decided to go to Guanajuato for their Independence celebration. Let's just say it was crazy! There was a stage where a varity of singers and dancers took the stage to perform. There was so much food and tons of toys for the kids. Then at 11:00pm is when they have their "grito". Basicly this was the time when the Mexican soldiers surprised the Spanards and won the Independence of Mexico. So at 11:00pm they rang a bell and everyone screamed, blew noise makers and of course sprayed silly string all over everyone! It was so much fun! Here are the kids sitting like such big kids in the back of the van!

We found our spot around 6:00 and didn't leave until after 11:00!

Christian and his horn!

The Circus

We took the kids to the circus last Friday night. It was...well...different. The kids could have got their picture on an elephant, but after a leopard tried to mull a kid and then his trainer threw him (the leopard) on his shoulders and brought him out into the audience for everyone to pet, we didn't really trust the judgement of the animal trainer. The clowns were...wierd, their jokes were just a bit off. Let's just say it was a very cultural experience. I won't even go into the finale. Anyways, the kids had a good time dispite the wierdness. Here they are enjoying the show. Posted by Picasa
