Day 30

Day 30:
There is always new thing to learn about life here. 
We get our fruit and vegetables from the market (we have a fruit guy).
We get our meat from a meat shop.
We get our bread from the bread shop below our apartment. 
And order flour, sugar, water, butter, and cheese in bulk from (I don't know where?). It just comes. 
haha. 
Everything is so fresh and good. Nothing last that long due to no preservatives or other chemicals but with 4 adults and 5 kids eating plus our helper (eats lunch with us 6 days a week), and any random person who comes to eat dinner with us all the food gets eaten up very fast. 

This is how we get our sugar and flour. A man drops off bags full of them
we pay then we have to measure them out on the floor. 


Cloth flour bags! 
Phil measuring it out on the floor. 

Me helping too! 
Our drinking water supply

Phil and I were the only ones home for the water drop off,
and flour/sugar drop off. It was neat having random Asian people
come into the apartment unloading all of this stuff.
We said what josh and linds told us to say, paid and
 looked like we knew what we were doing!!
I think were become pros at this stuff.
 That is until one of the guys talks to us and
we just smile and say, "Duway" = yes, yes.
and laugh.... haha then they realize we have no idea what
they are talking about. 

    Cade lost a tooth!! 

Missing tooth!! 

Phil pulling out Cade's tooth

Cade kept switching from laughing to almost crying.
It took about 5 minutes to get it out. 
Haha! Thankfully linds warned us about the crying part.

Cade rising out his mouth after 

A bottom tooth is missing!
So the scavenger hunt will begin...
(Instead of the tooth fairy the kids do scavenger hunts.
Lily was so excited about Cades lost tooth that she had to show me her last
Scavenger hunt and all the clue pieces. I really love this idea!)
Took the kids to the field to play

The crowd is normal! If we stand anywhere too long with the kids a
giant crowd will appear out of nowhere just to touch or look at us.
I'd imagine it what being famous might feel like.
I fell like Phil and I get our picture take at least 5xs daily. 

All the girls were so giggly. It was funny to see.
Some will try to practice their english.
They were in P.E. class while we were out there.

Sitting watching about 100 high schoolers do a funny dance. 

All the girls playing in the sand. They had soo much fun!

Cade taking over the track.
He's fearless when it comes to crowds on the track or field.
He'll play with his ball right beside their soccer games almost daring
them to ask him to play with them.
With Phil coaching him daily he could turn out to be quite the athlete. haha.
The high schoolers still dancing away. 


It ended up being a fun day at the field. It was good to let the kids (and ourselves)
 feel the grass between all of our toes. 
It's so rare to play in grass here in the city. 
What a blessing to play in these fields.
