February
bday celebration… Darel, Kayla, and Alvaro
We had a blast celebrating their bdays…fun games *including the limbo*, cake and ice cream fight *they have the tradition of smearing things, usually raw eggs, on the head of whoever’s bday it is*, and of course a pinata!!
Cindy taking a swing at the
pinata…in between swings, they do a little
salsa! It was hilarious!!
Another night we had more games, as well as the kid’s first exposure to a
bonfire and
smores down on the beach!
Esa and Scarlet by the fire
Pile on at the bonfire night!!
Leah and Ramon being silly
Celebrating the pastor’s bday…kids got in the middle and did
breakdancing!! A lot of the church came to celebrate after one of our outreaches…taking turns wowing the crowd with silly dancing, and enjoying a snack of soda and crackers. (We also went over another day to bring a fresh baked cake and spend time with the pastor and his family( They loved Chad’s Oh Le Le song he learned in Africa, so we sang that with them…
Elsa and Maria
Darel…the kids loved when we would walk along the lake with them looking for crabs and turtles to collect!
Packing in to the minibus all we can for trips in to town for outreaches!
Marjorie…she speaks English very well and is planning on coming to the USA *to PA!* for college b/c she is sponsored by a couple there!
Helping with the young adult group at our church *Centro Christiano de Ometepe* … teaching them some fun games here
*I recently uploaded a bunch of pics from Ometepe, so check out my photos for more of a glimpse of the beautiful people and island!
