Retro: Christmas Tree
In December 2005 we enjoyed our last Christmas in Canada before moving to Mexico. Here, 10 years ago today, Nathanael, Shari and Hannah enjoy the (mostly) decorated tree in our apartment in Calgary.

Only a few days old, Ashlyn is being held by her Grandma Ardys in this picture from 10 years ago today. Big brother Jevon on the left, and Hannah on the right.
In this month’s newsletter you’ll see, as I mentioned before, a rather egocentric view of history, featuring our own journey. It was actually interesting to track down some of those dates, which I had no clear record of.
The picture to the right is a larger version of the one in our newsletter. It’s Nathanael and Hannah, of course, only three days after we had arrived in Mexico. We still weren’t at our destination (Cuernavaca), but we were staying with our new friends the McManus Family in San Juan del RÃo.
So here’s our very first post from Mexico: The Cottrills are in Mexico
And as a follow-up, The conference (and how I missed it) (by the way, I haven’t been anywhere near that sick since!)
Here’s what I wrote soon before we moved to Ixtapaluca (we moved officially 6 days later): Still in Cuernavaca
From the leadership recognition service in Santa Bárbara, Ixtapaluca – a post and even a video: A Very Special Sunday for Sendero de Vida!
How can I forget the first Sunday service in Jesús MarÃa – even though I didn’t attend! The First Worship Service in Jesús MarÃa
And how about the leadership recognition service in Jesús MarÃa? Leadership Recognition Service in Jesús MarÃa
An early post about ministry in Las Palmas: Classes Among the Palm Trees
Of course there are many more memorable times, but there are just a few I mentioned in our newsletter. Oh, the memories!
Ten years ago today – we were in our apartment in Calgary, and were treated to an early snow!
Ten years ago today – Hannah and Nathanael at the dentist! Nathanael is having fun with the chair, but Hannah looks unimpressed.
Hannah and Nathanael admire our fish tank, on this day ten years ago. To hear the whole story, check out Pets and Fish is plural.
