Settling In

No pictures today and nothing really exciting to talk about. So, this entry is mostly for my record keeping. =) Life is getting better every day here. We are figuring more and more things out and are starting to get the swing of things. There are many things that are still confusing, especially with the language difference. We have spent many of our days here figuring out the stores and what things to buy where. It's very confusing, I'll have to some day post a blog just about the Denmark Markets. But, I am starting to get the hang of things. Our apartment is looking more and more like home to us. We were given a couch and 2 chairs by ward members, bought a desk from Ikea, and Bunk Beds from dba.dk. (Denmark's version of Craigslist.) Now we just need to get some pictures on the walls. It's nice to feel more comfortable in our home.
On Sunday, we were lucky to have a sister in the ward pick us up and take us to and from church. Our ward has been so nice to us. What a blessing! I have to admit that the topic of traveling to church is a major sore spot for us right now. We can't rely every week on someone to take us, especially since we don't have carseats and we don't fit into one car. We are looking into possibly renting a car just for Sunday's, but we just aren't sure what to do. There are just no straight forward answers to this dilemma. Hopefully we'll figure out something soon.
Myra starts Danish school tomorrow. I went with her today to meet her teacher and fill out paperwork for her to start. I feel very nervous about it. I just want what is best for her and I want her to be happy. She is very excited though. She couldn't believe it when they said she could start tomorrow and has been so excited all evening. She will be in a special class just for kids that don't speak Danish. As soon as she has a good grasp of the language, they will move her up to a regular class. The class she will be in for now will have a total of 5 kids, and she is the only girl. She's also the only one that will speak English, all the other kids are from Turkey and Pakistan. I'm just glad that her teacher speaks English, that way she will be able to communicate if needed. Then on Wednesday, Chad starts school/work. Thus ends our little Holiday we've had for the past few weeks. It will be good to get back into the swing of things.
