El Pollo Fino, by Kevin



Dinner at The Fancy Chicken. Total tourist trap right in the heart of Tamarindo. It was fun but way overpriced.

Waiting for the Meal, Ceviche as an Appetizer

Pure Awesomeness

Dinner with the Cervantes, by Kevin

Image
A few weeks ago (April 22 nd ), we were invited to a fish fry at the Cervantes’ home (they’re members of the branch; William, Kenya, Mau, Brandon). The kids loved feeding their horses, playing tag with their kids, and playing Sleeping Queens with them. Jodi made her amazing brownies. Cervantes fried fish that William had caught the night before, fried smashed plantains, and sautéed veggies. The fish was whole and they made fun of me for asking for a knife and fork.

Finally...visitors!!!, by Jodi

It was really fun showing off how amazing of a place we live in. After liv...

Un buen dia, by Jodi

Today was really good. It was our first day in the new branch and a bit overwhelming with everything being in Spanish. But also really spiritual. I don't know what happened to me, but suddenly I couldn't control this flood of emotions during each of the hymns in Sacrament meeting. I just felt so blessed to be here and so grateful for the church and the unity that it brings. The songs are all the same. The structure of the meetings are the same. But it's all in this completely foreign language. I don't know why it was so meaningful for me, especially since I hardly understood a word of it. I've been pretty stoic with this whole move up to this point, aside from some discouragement and frustration with getting logistics worked out. But this was the first time the emotional side really came out. I got a calling today. They called me as Primary secretary. I'm excited because it will allow me to play the piano in primary each week. They've just used a CD player...
