Flag Day and Mountain Climbing



Tuesday morning, Kendra, Mani, Tadeo and I went to see some of CVE's secundaria students take part in a flag ceremony because it was flag day.


 Rene, Gonzalo, Belem, Nere, Belinda, and Julissa were our flag escort group. Some teachers and important people spoke and everyone recited the pledge of allegiance and sang the national anthem. A flag escort of soldiers marched...


...and students came forward showing the development of the Mexican flag.  It was an interesting experience.


Tuesday evening I went on a quick shopping trip with Geo. As we were buying some sour cream and yogurt, the toliet paper rolls on the opposite side of the aisle avalanched. It was rather comical!


Thursday afternoon, we finally got Tadi's bed moved to our house and here he is settling in on his first night in his new home.




Friday there was no school, so I did not do Tadi's class either. Jessica Mogler and her five children were here visiting and also some others for The Fatted Calf board meeting (Duane and Ann Wulf's organization).  So Friday morning, Pau, Rebeka, Zach, Garret, and Marshall Wulf, Bev Mogler, Jessica, Mallory, Ryer, Elise, Leah, and Marissa Mogler and I climbed the cross mountain. It was a fun excursion!

Can anyone tell me what/who is hiding in this picture? :)

Please pray for: My family in the changes ahead and for CVE as we face changes as well. I have tickets booked to travel home March 17th through March 24th, so you can pray I will have a safe and successful trip.

Gift of the Week: For cozy blankets, trampolines, and starry night skies. Tonight I laid on the trampoline and looked at the sky and prayed. I thank God for opportunities, places, and atmospheres that help us draw near to Him.
