FINALLY!

FINALLY... such an appropriate title seeing as Thursday of this week we will have been in Belize for a whole month, and this is the first time we have posted! ha ha ha
Needless to say, things are a little slower paced here, and we are catching on quick.

Somethings we love:

1. The Ministry!



This is my first bible study's house! :) She's amazing!
                                        






 
If you look closely just above the tall grass... you'll see Eric and Cris conducting a bible study with Mr. Francis on the front steps of his blue and yellow house :)









 2. Burning whatever you want, whenever you want :)












3. Riding bikes everywhere!











 
The 6 mile bike ride out to Sittee River for territory every Friday...












Some things have taken a bit longer to catch on to:

1. Laundry by hand












2. No hot water: yes, you got it... cold showers... oh, and did I mention... OUTSIDE?

We wear bathing suits... but were you really expecting us to post a picture of this one? ha ha ha

                                          
 3. Relentless bugs!

  1. It's so good to hear from you guys!! I was wondering when you got down there and hoping everything was working out. It looks like you two are having an amazing time there! Can't wait to hear more about it. Hope those skirts will work out well ;)
    Love,
    Em and Jeff

  2. Glad your settling in. I heard you have lots of 8 legged houseguests, spiders and their cousins! It looks beautiful none the less. I miss you guys and who knows, I will visit one of these days.

    Take care and please give Eric a big hug for me.

  6. Hey! This veranda looks so familiar! I guess it should - we live there now! A few small changes: The Coconut trees are bigger now. The house is blue now. The folks who live in the wood house in front are studying and attending meetings. The outdoor shower is still there.
