Annnnnd the day is over...

Whew. What a day. Hardly any sleep last night and then Caleb woke up just 5 minutes after me and immediately woke up his friend, Dani, (staying with us for a week). That means at 6:25am I hadn't even gotten a chance to mix the boiled water with the instant coffee before 2 little boys started chasing each other around the house. We took Dani to kindergarten after first picking up Antal from Casa Alba (he attends the same kindergarten). After, Caleb and I bought breakfast for the office staff and dropped it off with a note for them to enjoy! Then we headed over to the donation warehouse (we call it the depot) where I picked out some carpets to replace old ones I have in my apartment. We received a ton of donated carpets which are just for the volunteers. How cool is that? Caleb and I hustled over to Casa Alba for Bible program with the pink room and then off to the FCE Club for lunch. After eating really fast we then ran to the kindergarten to pick up Dani and Antal. We walked Antal home to Casa Alba and then we walked home and crashed in our beds with books for 'rest time.' After a quick snack it was back to Casa Alba for program with the Purple and Green rooms. We learned how to "respect missionaries" today. We talked about what the definition of a missionary is : someone who tells others about Jesus, and does that wherever God wants them to. And then I asked them "do you know any missionaries?" I honestly was curious to see if they knew any...then, in total surprise, they said "Kelsey!" I looked at them funny and then went "oh yeah, you're right!" : )
We talked about how Peter was a missionary and he went and shared about Jesus wherever God wanted him to. And, that they can be missionaries in Marghita too! After the 2 hour program I headed home with Dani and Caleb and we ate blueberry pancakes and fruit salad for supper. Then into bed.
By the way, my neighbor from my old apartment building just knocked on the door with a bag of fresh eggs from her mom's house. I am so blessed by them.
OKAY. Onto another subject. Below are some pictures from my new place. Things aren't put into place perfect and I still haven't managed to have the table totally cleared yet...but, it was neat enough the other day to snap some photos!


The kitchen...ohhhhhh yeah.

The dining room section off from the kitchen. Big storm (furtuna) approaching outside.

Living Room

Hallway with 2 nice sized closets. You can see the door to the apartment at the end.

The "comfy couch and chairs" that came with the living room!
