Our Tachllapampa Cabin

We took a lot of pictures of our last weekend out in Tachllapampa. The children are really going to miss our little cabin there. . . and no wonder - with a loft, a hammock, and a swing it was designed by a loving father for his little ones!
Hemos tomado bastantes fotos de nuestro ultimo fin de semana alla en Tachllapampa. . . porque los ninos van a extranar mucho so cabana alla. Su Papa ha puesto muchas cosas bien divertidas alla, como su columpia, su hamaka, y sus altos.
Isaiah sure loves his Papa! Isaias le quiere a su Papa mucho! Here are the 3 youth girls that came to help us, L-R Jenny Yoder, from our church in NC, Helena and Lydia Howe, Betsie's sisters from OH! Thanks for all the hard work and potato peeling girls!! Aqui estan las tres chicas, Jenny, Helena, y Lydia - muchas gracias por ayudarnos chicas! The village of Tachllapampa as seen from our front door. . . in dry season there's not much color. El pueblito de Tachllapampa. . .
Jen and Lydia sorting potatoes - some of them sort of started growing already! See that mountain of dried cow patties behind Lydia? They're all ready to cook with. . .
Pobre papitas! Pero son ricas todavia!
Elisabeth Twirls!
Susanna pushes Samuel!
Isaiah swings happily, tied up in the hammock like a fish in a net!
Isaias esta muy contento - como un pez en la maylla.
And Betsie just layed around. . . while Lydia kept her company! (How thankful I am now for so much better health - 2 months sick in bed was long enough for me! Praise the Lord~) Y Betsie estaba enferma todo este tiempo. Casi 2 meses de enfermedad ere tan largo para ella. . . pero gracias a Dios, ya esta mucho mejor!
Here is Elisabeth cheerfully sweeping the loft that Gordon built the girls to sleep in. . . it was their pride and joy! Aqui Elisabeth esta limpiando su mismo cuarto. . . ella estaba tan feliz que por fin tenia su segundo piso.
