Hey everybody! I haven't written for a while, so I just wanted to update everyone as to what we are up to.
It's hard to believe we have been here 7 months already! The first few months were rough, but it really feels like home now. Dustin is as busy as ever with work. He has actually been doing 2 jobs since shortly after we arrived here, but they have finally hired another expat who should hopefully be in position by May. He is looking forward to being able to concentrate on what he came here to do! I am still running the household and taking spanish classes a few times a week. I really enjoy learning the language, but sometimes I leave class with my head spinning from trying to take in so much!
Austin has been playing soccer and will be playing in the championship game tomorrow (hopefully his team will win!). He also recently went on a 3 day school field trip to Ricon de la Vijea Volcano. He got to go zip-lining, he saw the startings of 3 new volcanos, he rode an ox, saw boiling mud pots and swam at a waterfall. Braden has been playing basketball and had his first game yesterday which they won. When we are home he is never in the house, he is always outside with the neighborhood boys and doesn't come in until dark. Kaylee has recently started swimming classes after school on Fridays. She and Isabella are also in the Drama Club and will be munchkins in the play The Wizard of Oz. Isabella is really liking school and especially loves math. She is always doing math problems and "quizing" me to see if I know what x+y equals. Zoey is still the high maintenance girl she has always been. Recently she has discovered our Baby Einstein movies and has become a bit of an addict!
That's about it for now, enjoy the pictures!
Kaylee, also after a super fun B-day party!
Of course Zoey wanted in on the pictures!
Sorry, I don't have any recent pictures of the boys or Dustin and me, I will have to take some and post them the next time.
