I could wish that it didn't cost us almost $45 to get our family to and from church (the buses here don't run on Sunday mornings so we have to use a taxi) but it could be so much worse. At least there is a branch in town, and not in the next county over!

Sophie bore her testimony today, as did Gary and I. She also insisted on fasting with us, and did great. She is such a trooper!

An American, LDS family with small children has moved in two houses down. Seriously, what are the odds? We are so lucky and so excited to have them near us in this predominantly student-populated area! They came over for dinner tonight and are absolutely delightful - the dad is getting his degree from UL like Gary, ony in music, so we have lots in common. Again, blessings and blessings! And now I have someone to talk to, go to the park with, and swap baby sitting! Yay!
