6 Month Anniversary - Here's to 60 more years!

A quick update with some pictures and stories:

Teaching the 6th graders a lesson on how to tell time. (Check out the uniform - Tuesday is Orange day).
 At our favorite restaurant - Estamos muy contentos!
First "Rumba" class with: fellow SAM missionaries Sam & Jesse, our friend Margarita and the class instructor. It was a fun class but also served as a reminder that some moves just aren't meant for tall white girls. Carrie's goal for the next class: move with the music so it actually counts as a cardio workout.

Recent Highlights:
  • We are getting more comfortable in the classroom and had a great week with the students. Among other, we did a lessons on the Second Conditional and Future Progressive vs. Present Progressive... needless to say we are brushing up on our English grammar.
  • Welcoming Jesse to our SAM team. The Lord has blessed him with so many tools that make him a perfect fit - he is adjusting quickly and we excited to be working with him.
  • We've noticed that Colombians like desserts and fried foods at all hours of the day, but it reached a new limit when Carrie saw a guy eating a jelly filled donut in between bicep curls at the gym today.
  • And by far the BEST thing was celebrating our 6 months of marriage! Nothing has been more of blessing to us than the marriage God has given us. Bo surprised Carrie and we spent the night at the beach to celebrate. As we reflected on our relationship we were reminded of Ephesians 3:20 - He truly has given us more than we could have ever imagined. Not only in our marriage but in our time in Colombia, God has proven to us yet again that He is always faithful and the provider of all we could ever want or need.
