Last week, we had a group of 21 adults from Ohio. Part of the group last week included the two parents of the long-term volunteer Ryan, who was here the first year I came down, so it was really neat to spend time with them. This week we have 3 groups - one with 39 high schoolers from Seattle, 21 all ages from Arizona and Nevada, and 14 all ages from Ohio = 74 total!!
They've all been really kind - welcoming me into their groups, feeding me dinner (and breakfast this week, which included pineapple crepes this morning!).

La semana pasada, tuvimos un grupo de 21 adultos de Ohio. Dos del grupo fueron los padres de Ryan, quien fue el voluntario de largo plazo cuando yo vine el primer ano. Fue muy especial conocerles y pasar la semana con ellos. Esta semana, tenemos tres grupos - 39 de un colegio en Seattle, 21 adultos y jóvenes de Arizona y Nevada, y 14 adultos y jóvenes de Ohio = 74 en total!!
Todos han sido muy amables - me siento como soy parte del grupo, y me invitan a cenar con ellos (algunas veces a desayunar también,


Friday Fiesta
Every Friday, after finishing a week's work with the family, we have a fiesta! The family makes a huge meal and the groups usually bring a pinata and cakes.
Dancing, playing with kids, chatting, lots of good times :)
