30 Day Blog Challenge: day 8

day 8
a place you've traveled to

I had a really hard time choosing.
Not that I've been a lot of places...but I just had to decide which one!

Mexico.
I went last September with Cait & a few others from her church.
This trip was amazing for a number of reasons.

one. I'd never gotten to go on a mission trip with one of my best friends before.
two. Cait's felt called to Mexico for years & I got to be there to see her experience that for the first time.  Best part of the trip.
three. Trying to use what little Spanish I know...& letting little kids help me & laugh at me.
four. Getting to know Mauricio, Mama Tori, & Saul.  And of course Mauricio's kids, Sophia & Gabriel.
five. Being chased around by little Mexican children scream "muchachas, muchachas, ¿chocolate, chocolate?"
six. Great pictures.
seven. Let's be honest...a week in Mexico > a week in school.
