Our AIR shipment arrived!! It was like Christmas getting our boxes. It is so nice having something more than just what we brought in our suitcases. Alyssa is excited to be united with her Build A Bears and to have some toys arrive. The children here in the compound have been so nice sharing their toys with Alyssa.
I am so grateful for our feather pillows and 600 thread count sheets and a few kitchen items! Bryan included some fishing gear and is off salmon flyfishing this morning with a few other men.
Alyssa loves school so far! They start swimming tomorrow. Her class swims on Mondays. She is reading British books with characters by the names of Biff, Kipper and Wilf! She learned that the rubbish bin is the trash can. Our girl is not in Texas anymore! Many children in her class are from Denmark, Holland, Australia and England. What an interesting melting pot!
I love when shipments arrive. We are still waiting on our ocean shipment and the kids ask everyday when will it be here! So glad you guys are getting settled in!
ReplyDeleteMagic Key books! Yes we taught with those in London! Gotta love Biff (who names a girl Biff!?). Sounds like she's having a blast. I'm so happy she is adjusting well. I'm reading your blog and it's all so familiar (the fact that you don't have access to brown sugar and other familiar cooking items). Hang in there. If it's okay for me to send some of those things, I'd be happy to! I have been there! Enjoy the snow!!
