São Paulo

   I know its been a few weeks since I've updated. I'm sorry about that! Here are some pictures for you to enjoy. This last weekend I was in São Paulo staying with some friends. I'm not a city person but I still enjoyed it. Here are some pictures for you to enjoy.
Breakfast


Somebody had a sweet garden on their roof.

A nice park

A cool street only people could walk on. No cars.


Massive cathedral

                 Now this was interesting. You had to pay to have a candle lit for someone, but it wasn't a real candle. It was an electronic candle thing, and it was like a vending machine. You put some money in and a candle turned on.




View from our apartment.


The very center of the city.

A messy fun time with the kids this week.
    So there's a bunch of pictures from my life. It looks like I'm having tons of fun, and I do have fun a lot. But living here has not been easy, its actually really hard a lot of the time. First, learning the language has been frustrating because I like to talk to people and make new friends. Thats hard to do when you can't speak the language very well. Another thing I'm struggling with is going from being completely independent in the States to being completely dependent here. That is really hard for me. You can be praying for me in those two areas.

The Great Food Post

   So I realized I do a lot of eating down here. Not only do I eat a lot, I have a lot of pictures of food. So i figured I should make a post about it. So enjoy the great food post.
Eating at a little shop in Atibaia

Eating from a street vendor. Don't be deceived by the face, it was amazing.

Brazilian Pizza

Some weird juice. It was good.

Out for breakfast.

Taco night.

Eating mini pizzas with the kids.
Some sort of white-sauce ground beef thing I invented.

The delicious egg, cheeseburger, hotdog, ham, and cheese sandwhich.

Pictures of my life.

    It's been a little while since I've posted anything. This is not because I have nothing to post about, its just sometimes its hard to make the time to post it. Next week I plan on writing an update letter. For now I'll just post a few pics that you can enjoy.
People donate a lot of stuff. So sometimes we have a Bazaar to get rid of it.
Jon and I like to take it easy sometimes.
We are learning to cook.

We're pretty good.
Just enjoying the sunshine.
There are some big creature here.
