Happy Belated Thanksgiving!!! I´m so thankful for how I was able to spend Thanksgiving this year. A group of 7 volunteers and I cooked in a hostel on the beach. It was fabulous, and then we had a bonfire on the beach in the night. It was sentimental, and delicious! I missed my family, but it was a very good sit-in. Plus, this year I got to go to the Carnaval of El Salvador. It was okay, although I wouldn´t want to be in the push and shove again. But, the music was good. Next year I think I´ll only go for the rides. :) Also, I recieved VERY good news recently....I´m going to be an Aunt!!! :) I´m so excited!! Sheena´s pregnant and due in June, so I´ll get to be there, God willing, for all of the excitement.

Now that Christmas is around the corner, I´m a bit saddened about not being home, but really I´m getting excited about the local plans. We´re going to make the best out of it. The kids and I have been making paper ornaments, and the other day I bought little lights...we have a small pine needle tree outside our door, so we´ve been decorating that tree. It´s fun. Plus, I´ve been practicing Christmas songs on my keyboard, concocting dessert recipes to cook for my neighbors, and we´ve planned a small Christmas party with our Health Committee. We´re going to exchange gifts and everything!! Yeah! So, I wish you all a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!! Hugs and Kisses, and will write more around Christmas time.
