Mas Mexico
Well, I don't have much news from Mexico, but I do have pictures! Last week we had the group from New Hope, in Portland, who left on Saturday morning, but Saturday afternoon Manny (a WHO board member) brought down a few guys to check out different ministries in the area. Last night another group from the same church came in and they are doing a VBS this week, together with the teachers here, in one of the camps.It was a busy weekend with lots of plans. Andy, the current intern, is leaving tomorrow and so the youth from the church have been having some get-togethers. We went to the beach Saturday night, and to a church member's house after church last night. Saturday afternoon we went to a quinceanera, the celebration for a girl's fifteenth birthday. It was for Tony's daughter. It was the first quinceanera that I'd been to, and I'm glad I went.
Pictures from the beach, including this wrong-side-up stingray we found on the sand:
Don't get too jealous- the beach here is COLD.Sunday afternoon we went over to the teachers' house to watch the United States and Mexico play for the Gold Cup. Friday morning, when we found out about it, we all started teasing each other about who was going to win. Quien gano? Who won? Los Estados Unidos, that's who. The four of us also decided it would be great to show up with painted faces.
Today starts a new week in the crazy life of Welcome Home. The Kindergarteners are graduating today, so I'll probably have pictures of that. For more information about Welcome Home (for those who have been living under a rock), go to their official website.
And for a parting shot, I got to hang up my first load of Mexican laundry. What a beautiful blue sky.
This post is dedicated to Renee, who told me she reads my blog during her workday. Hi Renee!!

Meghan the pictures are beautiful. Are you sure it's cold - looks like it should be warm.
Love to you and your parents.
