One crazy week...

It's been awhile since the last post. And that's because we have been soo busy. This past Monday we started work at 8AM in our classrooms and with several meetings. We have both been preparing and decorating our classrooms and getting ready for our students. Our first day of school is THIS MONDAY!!! 7AM!!! :)

It's been long days of decorating, typing up letters and notes for parents, writing lesson plans and procedures and rules for the students and mentally preparing ourselves for our first year teaching.

Here are some classroom pictures:



When we aren't in the classroom we have been hanging out with all the other teachers, getting to know each other. There is another married couple, Mark and Brittany, here from Idaho/Washington. We really enjoy spending time with them so far and can't wait to keep getting to know them. The other teachers are extremely friendly and helpful as well. We both know that God will continue to bless us with the new people and friendships He continues to privde us with. He is such a great God!

Last night we went to the weekly Thursday Night Street Market. Its' a great place to eat dinner for 2 for $6 and see some culture and entertainment.

Things are going good. We are hoping to relax this weekend before all the busyness starts up. Please continue to check out our Picasso Web Albulms, because I continually update and add more photos!! Also if you could keep us in your prayers and things will get busier now, but also as we begin full-time teaching and yet still adjusting to our new life here on the island. We miss everyone of you so much. Blessings...

Love,
