~Come spend a day with me in Argentina~

~I thought you'd like to see how one of my days goes here in our new country of Buenos Aires, Arg. =) First, we'll get up early (it was 5:00 AM our body time...for we are still on Colombian time) and Kimberly and I will go upstairs and hand wash a bunch of clothes.  There is a laundry mat close by, but we haven't found out if we pay them to wash our clothes, or if we use their machines to wash.~

~And here is our dryer.  =) Thankfully, right now is windy so the clothes dry pretty fast!~

~Next we make breakfast (I made quiche this morning and a fruit salad) and then we'll bathe a baby Mary.  Then she lays beside Daddy (who is reading his Bible) while I find her some clothes...and we can tell that she is ready for a nap....~

~Yep...thought so!~

~After she gets up we do several attempts of trying to get a picture of Mary...to show Gram that her hair is getting long enough to put in a little barrette.~

~Next we realize that the house is QUIET...so we must go and find Elijah...who was waiting to get into the tub.  We found him...he had climbed up into my closet and was playing in Mary's hair things. =)~

~Now, we'll go on a walk in our neighborhood, so we can see what kind of stores we have around us.  WOW! That's exciting...look at all the fruits and veggies in that store.  YEA!...And look what else I see....~

~YUMMY Strawberries~

~Now...we'll walk a little over a mile to the main grocery store.  Look at all this variety of fun crusty breads for sale.~

~And lots of different types of pastas too~

 ~And a HUGE long cooler full of every kind of cheese one kind think of.  We haven't found it, but hopefully they sell cottage cheese here too.
[And right after we take this pic, the guard comes and tells us that we are NOT allowed to take pics in this store. 
(I thought to myself...Really...WHY NOT?...this is just a grocery store.)    
But, I obeyed and put our camera away...and felt sad.  =(  ]~

Now, we'll go back home and heat up some pizza for supper.  Just after we get it on our rackless oven, and Phillip goes on a walk...the lights go off...and baby Mary starts wailing.  The lights stay off for about 45 mins.  THANK THE LORD we had purchased a fun candle as part of my centerpiece for our table...for that is how we were able to see when to get the pizza out of the oven and help Mary to stop crying. =)
We make a phone call to Thomas [who helped us get this apt.] to tell him that we'd like to continue living here, if they could please fix a few things...like the CD player, the internet which only works every 3rd day, etc. =) 
Thankfully, they are VERY NICE and helpful and just left after spending about 2 hours here trying to fix everything.  They plan to come back tomorrow to continue to make sure that everything is fixed...for I think they want us happy, for they seem happy to have us here.  =) 
[Before the owner left, she went and bought me an oven rack. YEA!!!!]  
God is GREAT...ALL THE TIME!  Thanks for coming to visit me, grab a piece of lemon cake sprinkled with BLUEBERRIES, and WALNUT as you leave! 
(YES!!!!!  We were THRILLED to find blueberries and walnuts here!!)
Please come again REALLY SOON! =D
