On The Mend

It's almost the end of our fourth week here and we are all feeling better, getting fairly accustomed to life here and learning so much spanish! This weekend Mary learned the secrets of making the best tortillas with a bunch of other ladies... she made them last night with butter, cinnamon and sugar... almost like fried dough! Abbie was completely better this morning, so went back to school after having missed a few days. She had a makeup test and got an A... I'm taking Jordan to his first soccer game today at 3:45...he is looking forward to playing. The coach is excellent and speaks no english, so this will be a great learning experience for Jordan. He has made a good friend from Mississippi, Jackson and enjoys playing with him. Each day when we pick up Brody at 1 pm he jumps up and down and runs to us...what a greeting. What a blessing that the kids all seem to enjoy school. I have my first Examen grande tomorrow morning... a 2 hour grammar test. I NEED TO STUDY HARD tonight. Well, gotta get back to clase! ~ Bri ps...we are hoping to take a bus to the beach this weekend with Debra.
