Well, things have been pretty hard around here lately. I know that some people can blog/write/reach out during the hard, but I'm just not one of those people. What little energy I have has been going towards the family. We're trying to take advantage of these last few weeks of sun by being outside in between school, tutoring, and homework. These pictures say to me that we are trying, we are not curling up into a ball and giving up, we're having fun in spite of it all.
For our one year anniversary in Peru, we took the kids to Divercity. It is an amazing place that simulates a little city for the kids. They have to work real jobs to earn money that they can then use to go to school or do fun activities. I've seen places like this in the States, but on a much smaller scale. I was really impressed and the kids loved every minute of it.
The bank where each kid has to open an account.
Riley and Tyler working as models.
Riley working as a news reporter.
Tyler working as a childcare worker. She took her jobs very seriously.
Sunday mornings some of the districts in Lima shut down streets and offer free sports.
Day at the beach. Peru is a beautiful country and we just forget that sometimes because we let ourselves get stuck in Lima.
All day pool party. Boys only in the morning and girls only in the afternoon.
And finally, going to school has worn this girl out.
