We're here!

So we got about two hours of sleep last night:) We are in Santiago and haven't been to sleep yet. We are going through training. We're trying not to sleep yet so we can sleep good tonight. So last night on the plane I was filled with such an amazing peace and excitement. It was so good to finally feel like this trip was becoming a reality. We are at the seminary which is definitely livable lol but just different. It's rainy and forty degrees outside with no heat inside. We have little space heaters that we can turn on every now and then which is good. We don't throw our toilet paper in the toilet lol. It is in a really great location though. Tonight we are going to the mall to change some money out and just get out a little bit. So the internet at the seminary isn't working on the majority of the computers except for the one that I'm on (which is not mine) so I'm not sure if we are going to be able to update as much as we thought. I know that Cliff and Cinthy have internet though so whenever we want to skype or blog we can always go over there. Currently there are 12 of us that are training right now so pray for everyone here as they go their seperate ways this week. We love yal!!!

  1. So glad to see you made it there safely. Funny about not flushing paper - eww! Anyhow, do you have an apartment, and does it have furniture? What's the time difference? Many questions - I'm sure you have more! LOL Is it pretty? I'm just anxious for ya'll and love you both. I'm so proud of you and what you are doing for the Lord. He will work wonders through the both of you! Be prepared!
    Luv, Aunt Kathy

  2. Ashley,
    Yay that y'all made it to Santiago safe and sound! Sorry you're so sleep deprived, but I bet you'll sleep so good tonight. I loved reading your first posts and look forward to following your blog. :) We're so excited for you and Zack and are praying for y'all!
    Love, Tara

  3. Ya'll must be really busy with your work and adjusting. I'm dying to know about what you're doing and what things are like. Look forward to hearing from you! By the way, Brittney is bleeding and may have an impending miscarriage. The baby was still in the uterus on Monday, and you could see it's heartbeat. Just pray that God's will - whatever it may be - be done!
    Luv ya'll!
