Visas!!!

No problems with getting the Visas! Praise the Lord!

Brent picked them up before he went in to work. He had several people in the waiting area think he was Colombian and start speaking in Spanish to him! When the one lady stopped talking he said, "No entiendo! Ingles??" She gave him the strangest look and then smiled and said, "OH, you're a gringo!" Brent said, "I'm about as gringo as you can get!"  HAHAHAHA!!!!

Today we organized the school area and filed papers that had been tossed into their crates for the past two months due to my lack of organization and follow through. It all looks MUCH better. The basement is mostly clean and I was able to pack away two of the tables with all the "stuff" on them.

 This is what it looked like for the past month..

We are working on sorting and repackaging all craft items and toys into ziploc baggies to save space in the luggage...

7 backpacks mostly packed!
All the kids except for Caitlin are packed now! That's a relief! So far so good. We are able to fit 2 kids clothing to one large suitcase. We'll see how many bags we'll end up with!

  2. Good idea to bring your own toys. We did and I am so glad because the U.S. dollar is weak and you are not getting as much in the exchange. Kids things are expensive!
