We're Here!!!

Hi friends and family!!
We finally made it to Nicaragua! I can hardly believe we are here!
We flew out of DFW on Tuesday and arrived later that day. With all of 5 of our bags weighing the maximum, we wre a bit worried about getting there, but with the help of Landon Maples we made it! If you see Landon at Woodcreek tell him we say thanks!! He helped us so much!
After arriving there, we went to our apartment, which is really nice! We have a bed, a couch set, a kitchen table, a fridge, a stove and oven, a microwave and even a George Foreman grill! What more could you ask for!
Our adjustment has gone pretty smoothly! I have definitely had my moments of tears, but the Lord has been very faithful to us.
We were able to set up our apartment to make it more like home and to go grocery shopping - both very good things!
Below are some before pictures of our apartment. Look for the "after" pictures soon!


This is our kitchen area!

This is looking from the hallway to the front door!

This is looking out our front door!
I hope this gives you a little bit of what are life looks like!
We love ya'll and miss you a ton!
P.S. Jeremy and Michelle, I love the digital picture thing!! Love it!! It brings me great joy to see all our friends and family!!
