Week 3

Hey guys sorry I haven't posted in so long. Wow the last two weeks here have been great! I do truly love Mexico. One thing that I really like is that before and after church you greet everybody really warmly and tell them God bless you. It's so fun to watch. I'm still a little ackward with it yet. With the girls you do the touch cheek air kiss thing. :) 
My Spanish has gotten a little better but it a still a long way in coming. I'm trying to study it in my free time. 
My weekly scheduale is this:
Monday is my day off so if anybody wants to skype or call me that is the best day to do so. 
On alternate Tuesday and Wednesdays I  take care of Boni. 
Sundays we have have church here at the yoders house in the backyard and then we go out to San Pedro and have church in the evening. One of our busiest days. 
The rest of the week I help Donna around the house. 
My normal day would be 
help with breakfast dishes
Clean the kitchen 
Sweep house 
Help with laundry
Bake something 
Help with lunch 
Lunch dishes 
Naptime 
Church or activity in the evening. 
It's pretty chill and I like it. 
The Yoder family is awesome! It's fun having 3 younger brother figures since I've never had a younger bro. Caleb is always fixing something or playing guitar and Kedrics doin school or playing sports and Kyle is telling jokes and hanging out with whomever he can find that's not busy. :) 
I have made some great friends with some of the girls out at the children's home as well. Is it crazy that I've not even been here a month and I'm already thinking about how hard it is gonna be to leave and how much I'm gonna miss everybody down here! 
I have been having some problems with my health. But I think if I just get more sleep and eat less sugar it will get better. (sugar has a negative affect on my joints especially)
The food down here I really like although they don't eat to much meat which is really differant for me. The tacarias here have some AMAZING tacos! I crave their food a lot! Yum. 
The other night i went to one of the singles night. Ironic though cuz half the people were dating. ;) We hiked beside the river. 
Afterward we picked up food from the Tacaria and hung out at Vaughn's house.
We sang and it cracked me up so bad cuz half of us would sing in english and the other half would sing in Spanish. :) luv  it! 
It's been really fun learning how to bake and cook while down here. Praise The Lord nobody's gotten sick from my cooking! ;) ;) 
 Soft pretzels 
My fav cookies!! 
My first pie!! Lemon merange! 

Prayer request. 
1. Energy (I'm always tired)
2. I feel like Satans attacking me a lot if yl could pray against that that'd be great. 
3. Sickness- people keep getting sick. 
Thanks y'all your da best!!!
