A few updated photos


At the fútbol game in Ocotitlán with José's family. On the left is Aurora's brother and his two children. In the center are Aurora, José, and their two kids. We're the güeros (light-skinned) on the right. His team won 6-1; it was very exciting and also relaxing. We sat in the back of the truck and ate sandwiches and mandarine oranges.
Our home on Calle del Tesoro, No. 8, Barrio de Los Reyes in Tepoztlán. ¡Muy comoda!

Josécito, Kimberly, Lisett, and Lea in the central square. We've so enjoyed spending time with the kids.
Feliciano, Lisett, Abi, Lea, and José having a ball playing together in the central square!

Here we are at the top of our very intense hike with a local family (see video of part of the climb). This cross can be seen from anyplace in Tepoztlán; the village is hundreds of meters below us. Now we look up from down below and say, "WOW, we made it all the way up there!" Lea has continued to refer to the cross as an "X" which is a hint that we're not Catholic.
Lea and Papa in the marketplace.
The usual suspects (plus Abi and Feliciano's older sister Aidé) at our home for the semi-weekly English class. Brian works with the adults and Kimberly with the kids. The kids have mostly enjoyed playing games during that time, but Kimberly slips in English lessons along the way.

  1. Hi Lea,

    This is Pippi (typed by Prentice.) What is your school like? What is your kitchen like? I want you to come home soon.

    Ms. Melahn broke her ankle. She was running with Spencer and slipped on some ice. She has crutches and a wheelchair. We want you to come home soon.

    We had cinnamon bread and sausages and juice for lunch. It was very cold (-9 windchill). Owen Johnson is mayor this week. He is a very good mayor of squirrel town, too.

    Sarahy had 60 wordwall words today so she won a trophy. She is very happy.

    I miss you. I want you to come home soon.

    Your friend,

    Pippi
