Crazy Busy at MTI

We have been wonderfully busy here at MTI.  A silent blog speaks only to a crazy schedule from the time I force my eyes open in the morning, until I fall into bed way too late. 

This has been our home away from home for the past month.  Yes, it is really this beautiful.  And yes, we Eric is loving all the snow. 

For about five hours a day, we are in class.  We start the mornings with singing and prayer.  We have truly enjoyed the spiritual fellowship and feasting here.  It has been a delight to our souls.

Sometimes the kids join us for lessons.  In this particular class the teacher had them line up in no particular order and place a rope on their heads.  He called it his "line graph" showing the ups and downs of settling in a new culture... :)

After class we unwind together in our room until supper.  Since all of us are exhausted at this point we usually chill with a video or a book together.

 We eat all our meals together in the cafeteria.  The food isn't being gracious to our GI tracks, so I have allowed the unthinkable (haha!.)..cereal for any meal they want...
