These are some of the pics that were taken yesterday when Mike arrived. His first Mexican restaurant, our neighbor, Mada's kitchen, talking through Skype with his 5 boys in the US, Jerod and Annie in our street with Annie and

Mike is Here!

YAY! Mike has arrived! We couldn't be happier! I must confess that there was a small part of me that was a little worried something would happen this time that would keep him from coming this time as well. So, we are all very happy that he has made it safe and sound. He was greeted by a very loud party down the street that they were having for St. Joseph. This is the day that all of the carpenters celebrate and boy do they celebrate! Since 90% of the workers in our village are carpenters they were all celebrating in honor of carpenters day! (or I guess that is how it would translate!) So as Mike arrived there were bands and dancing and lots of drinking all in his honor, or so it looked!:o) I told him it was because he was THE American Idol!! HAHA! I know it really isn't that funny...but...oh well....;o) I will try and post lots of pictures each day of our experiences with him, as I am sure there will be plenty! We will go to our study tonight and share that with him and then tomorrow we are going to show him the ruins of a volcano.
