Since we haven't updated this for awhile, we thought we'd just show you what our last few months have been like through pictures. During the last few months, I thought often about adding in a story on our blog and I even thought of some great titles, like: "I Went to Hierve de Agua and Survived!" or "Desperation - Garage Sale Shopping In The Snow". But, alas, none of those stories made it on here. Life is so much busier than I plan it to be. So, anyways, here are our last few months:
In February, we moved to Oaxaca City for language school and lived there until the end of March. Here is the house we lived in (our place was on the bottom)
Hanging out with Seve in the Zocalo (main center of Oaxaca)
Sam, Zach & Lizzy at Monte Alban (Zapotec Ruins)
Hierve de Agua - petrified waterfalls

The road to Hierve de Agua - it barely fit more than one car.
It was one of the scariest times of my (Kelly) life. It was
over 6 miles up and across steep mountains. But, we
made it safely up and back - God is good!
This is a very common site all around Oaxaca.
These women are amazing!

This is the bouncy that GFM rented for the MTS graduation. The kids
enjoyed playing in it while the graduation ceremony was going on,
and the adults enjoyed playing in it, too. The adults had it for
about an hour - the result? People walked away with torn ligaments,
bruises, and a broken rib. Next year, people will have to sign
waivers before they get into it. :)
So, that is our last few months, not including the 4 weeks we had in the States. We're back in Tlaxiaco now, preparing for our short-term teams to come within the month. More pictures and stories to come...
