Home

 Last Monday, we had our first night at our home. It feel so good to have a place called home. We are delighted with the house we are able to rent. We have wonderful shade in the middle of the afternoon.

My Kitchen

I am finally able to cook for Tristan and I. It makes my heart so happy. 


Cake the Neighbor Lady Made

We couldn't have been given nicer neighbors. Our neighbor lady makes and sells cakes. We were gifted one of her delicious Tres Leches cake. 

We don't have good water supply where we are living. The water is turned on at night. They allow us to be connected to there water tank so we have water during the day. There are so many God moments and we feel so unworthy of there kindness.

The neighbor lady told us we will know Spanish in no time cause she talks like a parrot. (Talkative)

We have been invited to there son's 18th birthday party. She says there will be a lot of pastel (cake) there. I believe we will be eating well.


School Prep

Tristan was helping the school in Oratorio get ready for the school term. The school has around 45 students this year. Tristan is going to help with any maintenance that may need done in the course of the school term.

One thing I am learning is that where we live everything gets a coat of dust in no time. Thankfully, I don't mind cleaning or "we would be up the creek without a paddle."

Monday I start teaching a missionary family's little girl. She is in first grade. I am excited about this new adventure I have been given.



Tristan and I feel very grateful and blessed with the home God provided us with.

 Hello Friends,   I will be honest; I am scared to publicize myself here. I am not a writer. I feel like I will be judged for all my grammatical errors, but I want to stay in touch with my friends and family so, here I am. I am hoping this helps. I am not good at calling people and talking for hours. I am also not good at typing parables on What's App so we will try this.  Someone asked me yesterday how many days till we move. I replied, " I am not counting the days." My husband says it is less than 3 weeks. That sounds to close for how much packing, I am still needing to do. Monday being my last day at work I am dreaming of completing many things on my mental to do list. But also, I have a hunch that I should not rely on it.  Lately I realized, that for me to get things done. I need to purpose to stay in one room and work on packing. Not flip flop between several. It has helped me tremendously. I have found it to be effective and helped me not feel so overwhel...

Tristan and I were in charge of a work group from Belize. They were a lovely group to host. They worked hard even though we received about 20 inches of rain that week.  Before Picture of the Clinic Tristan had been sick with dengue earlier that week so he was grateful for experienced men who could help design and handle the physical part of the work.  The ladies helped make the meals materialize off my planner pages. I couldn't have done it without them.  Added onto the porch and replaced clinic roof At the end of that week, we had our Reunion de Senoritas. This time was smaller than most. Our craft class is sewing quilt patches to make a quilt. Seeing the young ladies sit down at the sewing machine and learn how to sew the patches together was so delightful. The Hard Work Sewing Class The following week we had a youth institute. There were around 120 youth in attendance. It was a blessing to see so many attend. But it can be disheartening seeing out of the 120 only 20 ar...
