Engbers Update

My lack of posts lately is not due to the fact that we have not had excitement on in our lives, it is more because we have been quite busy. This past weekend we met Kevin, Linda, Connor and Bryant in Minneapolis. We went to the zoo and also got to hear Nick sing with his choir from Luther.
I just finished working three nights in a row this week and now I have a LONG weekend off!!! I am definitely becoming more and more knowledgable and comfortable at work. I sometimes cannot believe that I have already been a nurse for almost a year now!
Jon has one test this week, on Friday, in a class that in his words "is just hard to study for?!?!" So he has been able to "relax" a little this week before he hits the exams hard. He is officially done with his last test on May 11.
This weekend we once again have a busy schedule, and after raining ALL week it is supposed to be sunny and 75 so look for more updates to come!

A few pictures at the zoo:

This turtle was guarding his pile of food - ha!
We even got to see a dolphin show at the zoo!

Nicaragua Trip ~ Part 3

We all had a good laugh when this horse and wagon pulled up to the gas pump.  We were curious where they were going to put the gas but then realized there was a small tank on the trailer.  Waiting at an intersection for a cattle crossing. We drove about 1 hour from Leon to visit Lake Managua and Momotombo, the volcano in the background.  The volcano lets off steam continuously and actually has a geothermal plant within the volcano that captures energy to be used for electricity. Ready to head out on a boat ride to the base of the volcano. Saturday evening we had dinner with the clinic board of directors at a restaurant near our hotel in León. Sunday morning we had breakfast with Marwel and Einer and then toured some of the old architecture in León.  The yellow church below is called The Church of the Recollection, construction was completed in 1788. The oldest operating Catholic school in Nicaragua. We took a walking tour of the  León  Cathedral, completed ...

April Pics

April seemed to fly by so I'm glad I snapped some pictures to remind me of what we did during these 30 days! Clara likes to entertain her baby brother by getting out all his toys and books.  He does a fairly good job sitting nicely and watching/listening to her chat away.  Both Olivia and Clara can get Eli to smile as well as Jon or I.  He really responds to them! It is fun to start seeing many different expressions from this little guy.  He has us laughing with all his funny faces. This is Elijah's 'not impressed' face. Elijah's favorite way to nap is by his mom and with his blanket up by his face. He also likes to rest on his tummy. We were able to spend some time with grandpa and grandma Peters while they were back visiting.  The girls enjoyed some help with their puzzles! These girls never turn down an ice cream treat! (neither does their mother...) Such a happy guy with lots of big smiles. Olivia a...
