Oh, the Places We've Been

I know, I know. We have been terrible bloggers. But I am hoping this novel of a post will make up for it...

In an edited version of the words of Dr. Seuss, oh the places we've been.

We have played in Chichigua, given the hand there, and even hooked our horns.


We visited Sharla's twins and Holly in Santiago before Sharla finalized the adoption and was able to move them to the States - Gracias a Dios!


We have dined with friends in Cabarete...


...and been silly at the park with the kiddos.

.

The estudiantes have been all smiles, all serious and laughed everywhere in between.


We have celebrated all of the classroom goodies that Charlie's mom sent us...


...the Valentines' Day surprises from Katie and Suzy Mom...


...and the homework notebooks and crayons that Suz and her Bible Study sent for each individual student (gracias a todos)!


We have showered baby blessings on our friend, Milka!


And spent staff bonding day competing in the Makarios Winter Olympics.

'

We have welcomed the tremendous help of groups from the States...


...and finalmente moved into the new Makarios staff house!


This busy busy calls for a much needed Semana Santa this week...AMEN.
