A little slice of life...

So I've already been here in Costa for two weeks. I love it here. I think I'm addicted. There's not too too much to tell today...we've been working hard at getting things ready for our crazy summer of non-stop groups. We have so many groups coming, that they overlap! But in one month the rest of our staff will arrive...us 6 will be joined by 14 more! (And then all privacy is non-existent).

The last week I've just been working, and we've hung out a bit with people from church, which has been fun. It's been good to come back to people that I already know...I love meeting new people, but I think that to come back and keep building on previous relationships is something I enjoy even more.

On that note...here's some pictures for you all to enjoy.
Firstly, my little friend, Charlee, back in Canada, whom I miss lots...by the time I get home she'll probably be walking, and have a boyfriend, and listen to rap music. You know how it goes...


And here are my flowers from my Tica family...my favorite flowers, and I think my favorite colour of flower to boot (they were actually more orangey-red than the picture looks).

Here's my roomie, Carol, being cool on Chad's cool bike...eating cool Costa Rican chips. It's pretty cool.
And here's two sweeties. The one on the left is Abril...she is the daughter of a guy who works for us, Wilbur. It was her birthday yesterday so we had a birthday party for her here at the base...complete with Dora pinata (of course)! Here, Carmelinda (the daughter of the missionary couple I work for) is posing with her.

I promise here and now to take more pictures. Candice isn't here this summer to prod me to take pictures, so I keep forgetting. But I don't think you want to see pictures of me sitting at a desk doing administrative work...or washing laundry...or cooking food. Although, if you all decide that that's what you want to see, I can make it happen.

Blessings!

  1. Sounds like you're "in your element" Kathleen. I'm happy you're so content to be back, even with the crazyness of the summer ahead. Praying for your health, and sanity:)
