Hola from Kristin! We left this morning at 9:30 with the Michigan family on a sightseeing trip. We went to Cerro de Monserrate, one of the peaks in the Andean mountain range. Monserrate is a church at the top, overlooking Bogota. We took a cable car up to the top and a funicular back down. We were at 10,370 feet and we could feel the change in altitude. We posted lots of pictures from our journey, so check out our photo gallery. Josh didn't seem too impressed with the view since he slept the entire time. He is an easy baby to take with us, as long as we have plenty of bottles! We ate lunch out at a local burger place and it was a delicious treat- they were serving fish at the hotel! Then we had a birthday party to attend for Luisa who turned 4 today. She recently joined a family from Delaware along with her 3 brothers. This was her first birthday celebration and everyone from the hotel attended and brought little gifts. The kitchen made a Tres Leche cake (3 milk cake) that was fantastic and a popular Colombian birthday treat. We are both tired from our long day and Josh went to bed at 6:00. We'll see if that means an early morning... We are very homesick and miss you all! Keep praying for us to get Sentencia so we can come home soon!

Nyrd I know that I haven't been posting as many comments, but I've gotten very busy over the last couple of days. I also know that I'm posting about something that you did yesterday, but Oh Well..... Update on what's beeen happening here, Mikki is sheading a lot now for some reason, but is really happy to see me and lets me pet her even more then usual which is pretty sweet I have to say. Cloey is needeing more attention then even and I've asked the neighbors to take her out more this weekend because I will be busy partying it up at homecoming :) We've been taking lots of picutres so that you'll feel like you were never gone. I literally just sat down, i have been cleaning your house all morning, iy's taken me about an hour. I had to vaccum because of all the fur and then best of all.....I got to clean the litterboxes today! It was great and i'm really fast at it now. Just thought you should know the wonders of litterboxes. Good to hear everything is going well over there and that sightseeing trip sounded really fun. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
Laura,Cloey, and Mikki
