These are a Few of our Favorite Things...

We would like to share of a few of our favorite things. This move has been really hard for our whole family. We miss our friends and family so much. And sometimes we long for that which was familiar to us. So instead of thinking about these things, we try to find something special every day. We have several things we absolutely love here! So let us share :-)

Our Church

This is the Sanctuary.     
Playing Foosball in the Sunday School room!
Going to church...we meet on the top floor of an old factory.        
The parking lot, and a view of the neighborhood where our church meets.
   



Our most exciting purchase...new umbrellas!

 

Germany hospitality..everyone here gives us candy!




The bathtub is amazing.  We have played in here many times when we get really bored being inside :)



Even in the freezing winter we see green everywhere.  The kids and I still get excited about all the green!



The animal park at the end of our street!  Wow!  We love to go and feed the animals almost everyday!  Daniel was the photographer of all these pictures.  He wanted to show everyone his favorite animals :)


The entrance


   


 




There is even a playground and grass in the middle where we can play!

Going on walks.  This is especially fun when we get to go with our friends!


 




About Me

The novelty of the situation was inescapable; he was German and I was American. From the day we were married I knew that our family would always have an ocean between us. When in one country there is always a part of our family on the other side of the ocean. Now, as we move, there will also be a huge distance between many amazing friends. I am so blessed beyond words to be married to Matthias Funk. My name is Katrina Funk and I have lived the majority of my life in Las Cruces New Mexico. I have three precious children Daniel, Rebekah, and Lukas. In my spare time I enjoy researching and consulting in nutrition and herbal medicine. The most thrilling aspect of my life is knowing God. Learning the depth how he has adopted me, wow, amazing! The exploration of his creation, and enjoyment of his church, and the list could go on and on. I am so glad God has given life to me and this life is a wonderful adventure!
