What Followed



In an effort to finish this vacation blog, I will sum up the rest of our time in Mexico in one post.
Saturday found us at the beach playing in the water and taking rides on the 4-wheeler. The real excitement came when the minivan got stuck in the sand. Thankfully Joel and Meghan, who had driven the quad back to WHO, were able to bring a truck to pull us out!
Sunday morning we attended church. We received such a warm welcome! It was wonderful to worship with our brothers and sisters in Christ in Mexico. We spent the afternoon at the flea market (I got a really cute dress) and at Sand Dollar Beach. It was really windy, but the girls didn't mind a bit. They had a blast in the water while the adults read books.
Monday we held a carnival for the ninos at WHO. We set up games (big thanks to Sally Ritter for the supplies and ideas!!!) and gave prizes. (The girls held a bake-sale at Daddy's work to purchase the prizes.) They had lots of fun! tho the daycare children didn't really get what was going on. The cupcakes at the cakewalk were a huge hit! Meghan, Jackie and Neri pitched in to help us with the carnival.
Our time in Mexico seemed too short, but thankfully Joel's family was able to drive up to California with us to spend a day at Disneyland. We were happy to share more time with them! But that is for another post.
