Yet another Saturday...

We went bowling at Unicentro (the mall) this morning with 2 other families --Shelby and Rachel, et al and Simone, Paqui and Brayan.


Dayana, Johan and Rachel

Nelson and Stefany

Can I PLEEEEEEASE try????? No? Then I´ll just push the reset button --Hee, Hee, Hee

The whole crew after our trip to Mc D´s for McFlurry´s

Our 3rd family left this AM. They went on holiday to the coast and will be back Saturday. Hopefully they´ll be back to El Refugio, but if another family comes, they´ll have to go elsewhere. Two families from France joined us last night.

Sam, Alex and Nate, this is the famous Colombian Taxi. Isn´t it little???? You should see it with 6 people in it :)

Vilma (Beelma), one of the wonderful maids that takes care of me. She keeps threatening to take Nicholas home to her casa. She is the one who had such a great time teasing Chris about sopa and his spanish. "No English, Mister (sounds like Meester). Only Espanol."


Rosio, very quiet, but loves a good time and will do anything for you. She is just a joy...

Hi Nikkie!
We so missed you at Bay Lake. It was kind of quiet with out you. We were able to check in on the blogs.
Just want you to know that we have not forgotten you. We are still praying for you to have a speedy return. I am looking forward to having your boys this week!
Thanks for sharing the pictures of the others. It is so fun to see faces of those you are sharing this time with. Those 4 children are beautiful! Is the adjustment going better for them? Nicolas is doing awsome. I bet that makes you feel good. Take Care! we love and miss you and it will be soon that we get to meet the new Thayer Boy.

Nikkie, Hi from the Brocks. It's fun to see the pictures and hear what's happening. It seems strange that you're far away and still some things are the same as they are here......bowling, shopping,malls, pushy men. I guess the world's not as big as we think it is. It sounds like Nicholas has the best medicine around....love,love, and more love. It'll be great when we get to see you two in person. I didn't get to go to Bay Lake either. I went to visit my folks last weekend and I didn't think I should ask for another day off of work. I wonder who they got to be "dock boy" without me there. Miss ya. Dawn

Nikkie,
I really missed you in Church today, you know our "Class" just isn't the same without you. I hope you are having a good time, I am sure you are missing your family like crazy but I am so glad to know that you have friends there. I have been keeping up on the blog, sorry I haven't been leaving any comments, but I always love to see the pictures and find out what new things might be happening. We look forward to your return, I hope it is soon, I suppose I will have to be the trouble maker again at the Tupperware meeting, I wouldn't want Robin to get off too easily.
Take care and I will be praying extra hard for the all the paper work to get finished up.

Hi Nikki,
Just thought I would drop a note as I have not been able to for quite a while. We are excited to see Nicko. We are praying that you will both be home soon, paper work done and everything.
The Douglas' will be traveling soon they are just waiting for the girls passports. Thats exciting.
The church is comming along well too. The second wall is comming out this week and they will tie in the roof. That's exciting too.
Sounds like "the sisters" have kept your blog busy while you have been gone. Must be nice to have so much extra time. They love you ya know, me too.
Hug and kiss Nicko for me and give him our love. Hurry home.
