Happy Birthday to me!


Giovanna turned 13 today. Everyone was a stir as they were getting ready her cake. The cook, the directora, as well as two off-duty tutoras were there to help her celebrate. We took a gift by and visited awhile. We went nearly an hour after the supposed time. When we left preparations were still underway!

School Celebration for Father's Day




We were pleased to be with the kids at San Lucas for the Father's day celebrations. Manuel was the doctor in a skit, Margot was dressed for her role as crowd control, Jonathan was a part of a family of ducks in a gimnastic routine. Fun for all, and, of course, we had boiled potatoes with Ocopa sauce for the adults. Big day! Afterwards all the kids played in the playground together as they waited for the bus.

COMPUTERS!!!!



We are SO excited!! Thanks to our tios at St. Nicholas' , Flower Mound, we now have two computers on which to do our research for school. We bugged Padre Ron about "chat" and "email." He was TOTALLY against "chat," but when we talked about emailing our "Tios" he softened up! We'll see how this all turns out! We are blessed by your caring for us who are so far away from you.

P.S. We already know how to get to the games!!! Bye for now, Chao.
