And living in Mexican culture means inevitable going to a lot of parties! People here love to get together and it's always a lively time. That said, we've been able to form closer friendships and connections with those at these parties by getting together one-on-one and in smaller groups, which is where those deeper conversations tend to happen.
So, here are some group shots from events in the past few weeks!
Carter with friends at a 1st communion party. Most of his friends are from traditional Catholic families and the 1st communion happens between the ages of 8-11.
Some of the parents at the 1st communion party - Dallas was taking the picture.
Carter was invited to a friend's house for a day and they went out to find a place to fly their drone. This is one of Carter's best friends since kindergarten.
And the dads at the party.
Those are just a few, as most of our pictures have our little girl in them! She is always with Dallas or I and so ends up in a lot of our pictures and therefore I have to pick and choose :)
And here is one more of the boys with friends. All 3 of our boys are currently at a nearby Bible camp for the week, and based on the few pictures we've been sent, I know they're having a great time. This is Logan and Brady's cabin, and Carter is in a separate cabin. This year Carter had 2 friends go with him and Logan had 4 friends go, so this is a neat way for them to invite their friends to hear about and experience a week of God's love being taught and lived out.
With the boys being gone this week, we have our little girl here with us and tomorrow our little boy comes to visit. The house is a lot quieter...and a lot cleaner!...less cooking going on here, that's for sure. But we've been able to get quite a bit done, some extra coffees and meetings in with contacts, organizing in the house, Dallas other work, so it's been a good week.
