Getting Settled




It is amazing to think that we have already been here for over a week.  We have mostly put our apartment together and we are now just waiting on furniture being delivered and a few odds and ends.   But the feeling of just being here is absolutely amazing!  I never would have imagined that I would be feeling this great and excited.  But I guess knowing all of the support we have  praying for our transition into Mexico City I should not be surprised!  The apartment we have is perfect for us I couldn't of imagined anything nicer :)  I absolutely love the area, I love the culture, (what I know so far) I love the market up the street, being able to walk most places.  The new members of our team our absolutely wonderful I can not even tell you how blessed we are just meeting them and how excited we are to work together with them.  Now to just finish fixing up the things around the apartment that we haven't had time to get to like hooking up the washer and dryer, fixing a toilet!  And working on our spanish of course!

Here are a few pictures of our week.  The first one is a view from our apartment, the second one is of Izzy and her friend in grade three (from the other couple on our team!) and the third is of Carmela eating roasted corn, a very popular meal.
