For those of you who may have been wondering, YES, we are still alive!!! It took around 50 days to get internet access in our new city, but (to God be the glory) we are once again able to communicate with everyone. To put things in perspective, we were given special treatment to get the connection so quickly!! We have found this to be the reality of the culture we live in. We are so excited to be able to update you on life here. The boys birthdays and Thanksgiving have passed since our last update and it was surely different, but by all means GOOD! We now have a place to call home and are making new friends daily. Language learning is tough, but every day our vocabulary grows and sentences are even beginning to form. We have been receiving everyone's packages. I can't tell you the joy it brings to our house when the mailman arrives! THANK YOU!! Well, I have plenty of stories to tell, but I better not try to do it all in one update. Here are some pictures from the recent days!! They are of the boys opening one of the packages you sent and a guru that the owner of our flat took me to meet. Merry Christmas everyone!!!!!
