Medium/Small Un-monumental things

Before we left a missionary told me that one of the best things to share with your friends and family through your blog is the day to day, the little un-monumental things.  "It lets people see your life, the funny, the sad, the weird details, not just the work you're doing." 

So here are some medium/small un-monumental things

  The crate arrived (as we already posted).  They forgot to mention that we had to either use our own forklift to get it off the truck or take everything off piece by piece.  Guess what we did?  Of course we used our forklift that we always have in our backpocket.  Our host family helped us out a ton!

 After getting everything off, we packed it all back in to store until we have our house.  What a blessing to get the crate, especially with all the craziness that it has been with the paper work and customs issues.  

THANK YOU FOR THE PRAYERS!

I got our bikes put back together and we're commuting on bikes now which reduces our transportation cost a lot and we're getting more exercise!

 Our host brother was baptized this past sunday!

 I got my Chuck Taylors PF Flyers Sandlot Edition out of the crate and I'm feeling like a Champ!  By the way Joseph, I can't tell you how useful all of your groomsmen attire has been for me.  A good pair of slacks and some smooth sneeks.

  

Chile's not big on whole wheat anything although all the suplies are super cheap.  Here's to our first loaf. 

And you thought I'd leave out the review of how my beans are going.  They're going really well with the homemade whole wheat bread!  I feel like Aunt Jemima.
