Service
swimming with the kids is one of my favorite things about service. here we are preparing to jump in the water! but of course, smiling for a photo op first! cheese! or as they say in mexico, whiskey!
Me and my friend!
one of my new favorite little friends. she had the cutest family in the ward, not that i had favorites. she was always so willing to play with me. i cant tell ya how much spinning weve done! ;-)

although i absolutley love love love the sunshine! a rainfall now and then again is just fine with me though!

A NEW FAVORITE
delicious orchata! a rice drink, very popular here, and a new favorite!
Swimming at service!
Every wednesday, at service, we get to help take the kids to the pool, where we get to help teach them how to swim. A lot of them, I'm impressed already know how to swim laps. We get pared up with the younger ones who are not quite so independent! It is so so so much fun to work with these guys! and something they love ! its fun for me to be able to share my love of water!!
Tonala
today we had a group trip to tonala! mom, you would of loved it! the shops were so cool! you could spend hours at one shop, okay maybe not hours...and the coolest thing was most of the stuff was hand made! actally second coolest! first was that everything was so cheap! :)
Indiana Jones!!!
You guys have to check this movie out! I thought Harrison Ford did a great job! Its defintely not one of the classic three, and the ending's a little questionable, but I enjoyed, spanish and all!
Temple Trip
Our adventures after school...
I'm not sure that I've written a blog about this one...but one day after school we saw all these "things" set up, so we went and checked them out. Within the hour! We had repelled off of the building, taken the zip line down, and bungie jumped,..oooh, and rocked climped and cliffed jumped back down! What an afternoon!!!
the View of Guanajuato
this is MEXICO!
In the torture box!
this was actually pretty scary..the idea that people we are actually shut inside of this thing, i don't know...even now thinking of it, i get tingles down my spine!
in the mine!
it was way cool, we got to hike all the way done into it!!!
Futbol!!!
we were quite the attraction!!! all those gringas sitting in the super fan section! lets just say...we kind of stood out...and everyone wanted their picture with us! it was crazy!
mercado
we found the coolest market downtown...can't wait to go back!!!!
Escuela
In this picture we are practing our song, that the teacher ended up asking me to coordinate and choreograph! Actually we perform today, for the whole spanish department. We are having a huge fiesta, for those who are finishing up the term, and those who just started, like us. The song we are singing and dancing to is so much fun! and a new favorite!
Futbol!!!
Helen Keller Kids

the kids are absolutely amazing....this kid and I spent a lot of time playing together. To tell you the truth I never got his name, he talks pretty fast. But he held tight to my hand while we played together.
Don't drink the water!!!!!!
si lo puedes sonar lo puedes lograr
