Audio of Nathan Laughing October 1

You know you live in a foreign country when you can go to McDonald’s on your day off at 11:00 AM to eat BREAKFAST. I had an egg and chorizo burrito (another benefit of living in a foreign country.) Later, we went to our version of a dollar store called Waldo’s Mart. They import a lot of stuff from the US, and it’s cheap, so it’s a good place to shop. Then we went grocery shopping at Costco. We got to watch part of the Yankees and Red Sox game, and now, we’re watching the Florida and the Alabama football game. It’s been a good time off.

Here’s some audio of Nathan laughing today.

By the way, this weekend is the first ever NFL regular season game outside of the US, and I have tickets, because it will be played in Mexico City’s Estadio Azteca. I am going with my friend Rob and his son. It’s going to be a blast. There is a lot of hype about it on the web, so if you want to check out some of the information, here are some links for you.

Viva Mexico!

Thursday night was Mexican Independence Day. We went to a party to celebrate. All of September, they have had all sorts of stands selling Mexican flags, sombreros, costumes, and all sorts of cool Mexican goodies. So, we bough Nathan a sombrero for the big night. He wore it to the party, and, as usual, he was the star. We didn’t let them paint his face, though. It was a great time with good food, fun, singing, dancing, and, of course, friends.

Nathan Mug Shots

Today we went downtown with our lawyer to get Nathan’s visa. You have to get your pictures taken at this place with a really, really, old camera. They are identification pictures, so they look like mug shots. Here are the ones that we got for Nathan. They look hilarious. He was sleeping, so we had to wake him up to get the pictures taken. Luckily, he’s always in a good mood when he wakes up.

Mexico vs USA soccer

Saturday evening, at our church, we are having a party at our church to watch the Mexican national soccer team play against the USA national team. The winner of the game gets into the World Cup tournament that will take place in Germany next year. Both teams will probably get in to the tournament, so it’s not that important, but it is important for bragging rights. It should be fun to watch on the big screen. You can tell by the picture who I want to win.
