Wedding Week

It has been a busy week! Mariela and Amber came in on Monday night and we have been going strong since then. Mariela is on her first trip to the USA and has marveled at things such as:
My Dishwasher ("That washes the dishes and you don't have to do it by hand??" She has been begging me to run it!).

My Garage Door Opener ("Can I open the door?")

The Carpet in my House (She has never seen carpet before)

Here are some pictures of our fun times!


At the zoo! It was so hot but a great trip.

She loved the animals (and she loves posing for pictures so I got lots of practice with my new camera!


Eating her new favorite fruit -- a peach! She has never had them before and keeps begging me for them.

It looks like a fun time at the zoo. I can't wait to meet her on TH. Please invite Amber to join us. I hope you are having a nice time being off work.

Hi! I came across your blog one day, and the fact that you are a christian social worker interested me. I myself am a christian, and am thinking about majoring in social work in college in January.

I find your blogs very interesting, and am looking forward to reading more!

Congratulations on your wedding, also! Mariela looks like such a sweet girl-that's cool that she got to come to the US.

Thanks for posting,
Courtney
