Getting Settled









Welcome to Mexico!  We already feel at home in this new little apartment.  Work has already started with Andy on the job site.  Last week he took me on a walk through of the whole temple.  Its amazing to watch these crews at work.  The temple is a little over half way finished, but there is still so much to get done.  We made it to the temples roof and it gave us a pretty good view of our neighborhood.  Its nothing fancy, but it amazing to look at.  We've also spent time at the visitors center meeting missionaries and enjoying The Christus.  We visit there often and enjoy the peaceful setting.  I haven't been homesick at all but going there feels a little like home.  It feels so familiar.

Sunday we ventured a little closer to the city to attend the english ward.  It took about an hour to get to.  Driving in Mexico City is just crazy.  The Church is in a beautiful neighborhood in the city surrounded by beautiful homes.  We completely fell in love with our ward when we first got there.  Everyone was so inclusive and friendly.  It was also the wards primary program.  I was so surprised by the size of the primary.  There were 40 plus kids and they each did so well.  Almost all of them had their parts memorized.  It was wonderful to see.  

So far things are so good!  There is so much still to see and experience and we are so excited!

Love, Lauren
