Our New Apartment

    OK,  We have been in the new apartment for a couple weeks and I promised a few pictures of the place.  Here they are...  We have three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a larger living room, kitchen and dining area, a little "family room", a laundry room and a "maid's quarters", which consists of a small bedroom large enough for a single bed and nightstand and a very small bathroom.  When Doug was here he claimed that bathroom, but it is so small when you open the door it hits the sink and can't go any further so we took the door off the bathroom and just used the door to the bedroom as the bathroom door.  Also, this little black item (keyboard) came with the apartment!! I am so excited to spend some time with it!  Also, I didn't mention that we are the librarians of the library for the Senior Missionaries.  It is in our living room and consists of books, some DVD's and CD's and several how to learn Spanish books.  We are hoping some of all this will rub off on us.

  Tomorrow is Labor Day here in Guatemala so we have the day off from the clinic.  It will be catch up day, go to the grocery store and the "green market" where we get fruits and vegetables from the locals, and whatever else needs to get done.

  Jolynn has found a buyer for Grandpa Van's home.  We are going through the paperwork now and they are trying to finalize things by mid May.  It seems a little weird having it sell so soon, but I did say my goodbyes when I was there last.  Maybe it is better I won't see it empty.  

  Tomorrow is a new month.  Probably the last month of school for all you kids in school. Spring vacation is coming!!!

Love you!!!!    MOM & Grammy
