Settling into our new home



We have settled into our new home for the next two months and we love it. The town of San Miguel Uspantan is really nice. It is small but has everything we might need. Including a local makrket that is open everyday, where we can buy fresh vegtables, all household needs, snacks and even clothes. We started working on the first water purification system yesterday for the large apartment complex that Felix owns. The apartment building is like a MC Escher painting and makes you feel like you are living in a maze with awesome roof views and a courtyard with a lemon tree.

We went to a small local church where we got to meet all the members and the boys even played soccer with them twice. The kids are adorable and really good at soccer, it was a lot of fun to watch all our boys play with the little tiny children.

All the people in town are very nice and curious about us here, and Felix´s family is amazing!! They have made us breakfast and lunch everyday. Usually eggs, black beans, and tortillas for breakfast and some awesome dish for dinner. We hope to learn how to make tortilla sometime while we are here.

We miss everyone!!
much love marla and aaron
