This morning we spent cleaning up and regrouping from the weekend and then about 11am we went with Rafael and Natalia to the river to fish and play and have a picnic lunch. They found a great in let spot where the water wasn't flowing as fast and the kids loved playing in the water. When we got back Lydia got a hair cut from Elizabeth which she was very excited about.
1/27/15 Day 76
Today we walked to the daycare together to water the trees and grass and then bought groceries at Anonima. This evening we went to Rollo and Evelyn's house at about 7pm and stayed until midnight. It was fun talking to them and learning how to make some food typical to Argentina. Our kids also loved playing with their kids. We are so greatful for their friendship to us.

This morning Nathan went to Juan's house to help get things accomplished and cleaned up. This weekend the Patagonia Mennonite Conference is in Choele Choel. It is 3 days (Fri, Sat, Sun) of worship, meetings and encouraging missionaries and one another in Jesus name. Many people will be traveling here from all over the Patagonia area. I was going to take the kids to the park for something to do to pass the time while Nathan worked, however we decided to walk the 50 minute trek to Juan's house to play and help out there. We only walked about half way there and got to Chito's house and he offered us a ride the rest of the way---that really felt like the Lord provided for us. We spent the morning painting the fence and helping out at Juan's house in preparation for the convention this weekend. This evening we walked to a church zone that is three years old (pretty new) and one we had never been to before called Las Bardas. Brenda told us how to get there and once we were close we couldn't quite find the building. Then a brother from the church came out of his house and explained to us where it was and then we also saw Pablo Cifuentes walking down the road and we knew for sure where to go then---another way the Lord provided for us. It was wonderful and exciting to see this new church development. After the church meeting we walked to a families house to talk to awhile until we walked back home late at night. A very full day of the Lord's blessings!
1/29/15 Day 78
This morning Nathan helped at Juan's house again getting things in order for the convention this weekend and the kids and I stayed home. Next week the family that lives in the house behind Juan's house will be moving to Valchetta and our plan is to move into that house behind Juan's house. Please pray for us as we make this transition. I am 20 weeks pregnant today and can't believe how fast this pregnancy is going. At this point I feel like I need about 60 weeks of pregnancy. However, we feel very blessed to welcome another sweet little one whenever he/she comes.
1/30/15 Day 79 & 1/31/15 Day 80
The conference starts with meetings and worship in the morning and worship in the evening as well. These two days we spent in meetings and worship and playing out at Juan's house in the afternoon with many other people.
2/1/15 Day 81
We had a corporate worship service this morning with everyone that had come for the convention this weekend. There were so many people and it was a wonderful time worshipping together. This evening we walked down to the river to cool off and play soccer.
