Sunday and Monday

Here's Elia in Sunday School. When she came out, she showed us her picture of "Maria" and said, "This is Maria. She's supposed to wear blue, but I colored her dress yellow." I think she had a good time with her teachers Rosy and Zaira. And yes, the class is in the storeroom! Little by little we're getting our Sunday school rooms ready, but in the meantime...!

Sunday afternoon we took a bus ride into Mexico City. Supper at the famous Sanborns House of Tiles right downtown! Squash, the fruity drink, was luscious, as were the soups we ordered, and Elia decided on the "definitely kid-friendly" hot dog and letter fries!


Sunday evening saw us at the incredibly beautiful Bellas Artes to see the Folkloric Ballet. My second time to see it in two weeks! Isn't that a record, or something? I never tire of it and this time was especially fun with Elia, Bethie and Kris!

Since the ballet starts at 8:30 PM, I was afraid Elia wouldn't make it, but she was a trooper! She got "really tired", but managed to stay awake till the last beautiful dance and chattered all the way back to the hotel! What an exciting memory we made for her - for all of us!
