More of Aspen

I thought that I would post a few more pictures!

Aspen

ASPEN KEAY FONGER
(April 29th, 2008)

Tracy is my inspiration. She is so calm and is really a great mother. I'm very excited that a little girl can join the family. She will be a joy for everyone!

(Yes, I think that my brother should cut his hair!)

This picture is cute. She is smiling and ready to begin her life.

Here I am, holding a person that is an hour old. It really is a humbling experience. I am only sad that I will miss the first year of her life. Again she is smiling for the camera while my mom is holding her. She is going to be a loved granddaughter. Mom has waited a long time to buy pink clothes!

A Sad Sunday

I went out to feed the pigs today, and I noticed that Angel was bleeding and was wheezing. I cleaned the cage and then took her to my parents house. I called the Vet but they wouldn't have a small animal doctor in until 5 hours later. Angel just couldn't hang on that long. She was gone within the hour. She really was funny. She would hide every time someone came by and my students just loved her. Good bye Angel, You are an Angel now!!!

Here is my dad digging the hole!

Kady never left Angels side. She was so sweet and wanted to know what was going on!

I call this area our Pet Cemetery. There are hamsters, gerbils, and now a guinea pig that graces this sacred ground. I must admit that I did shed a few tears. I felt bad that she was so sick and I didn't realize it in time. I'm also dreading telling the students that she won't be here any longer.

Kady just kept looking and the ground and sniffing. She started digging, so I took her back in the house. She really loved the pigs. When I had them outside, she would be right by them and guide them back if they got to far away. It was pretty cute!

The Snow

I will admit that this winter had a lot of snow storms, but I just had to take these pictures of my brothers house. He did build a snow cave outback (again) but this one didn't hold up this year. I didn't get a picture before it caved in .
No sleeping outside this year!

Here I am standing on the street looking at their house. Yes my nephew is in his underwear as always. What makes me laugh is that he never gets cold!

I call this the tunnel, it is just the sidewalk and I was just taking a stroll!

The snow had been higher than this but it had been sunny for two days. I bet they don't have anything like this in Honduras!
(Yes, I forgot that I was wearing my brother's tie)

Tegucigalpa & Saying Goodbye

Here is the Savior watching over the valley. I honestly don't know how he is able to not fall down the cliff.

I have never seen anything so crazy as the capital. There are houses on every inch of the hills and mountains. I believe that there are two million people living here!!!

We stayed at Edgar's cousin's home just down by where the bus is passing. The view was amazing there but the taxi ride to get to the apartment, SCARY! It reminded me of hiking in Zion and going up the switchbacks but in a car! I'm not kidding when I say it was just like it!!!

Here we are at the airport. We laughed and had a great time. Benny took a picture of Edgar and I before my flight. You have to use your imagination because I was crying like a baby after this. Everyone was looking at me, I must have been a sight to see!

The Farm

This is a picture of the farm standing on Justina's porch. There is Mario's new home and the farm just keeps going and going. It was a lot bigger than I thought!

This is his mom's old house. She now lives in Mario's new home.

I will admit that I could not get over seeing my husband carrying a machete. We were walking through the farm to go meet his dad. I think these are banana plants?!

Edgar kept telling me to just touch the bull. He is way bigger than this picture seems. I just couldn't do it. The bull seemed nice but I have watched to many shows with men being gored to death! He has a nice hump on his back though.

I am way excited to learn how to ride the horses. That will just have to be another blog!

La Chiquitas Rosa

I wasn't one to wear pink until a few years ago. I guess that I'm now an example of how to dress!
