Hey all!

A few exciting things have happened since we last posted.  First of all, we ate “cuy” which is guinea pig.  They do not have a lot of meat on them and are not very tasty.  The people here really like them, but apparently the tourists usually have one for the novelty and they´re set.  I think that´s the group we´re falling into.

This was a really busy weekend though.  On Thursday night, it was a friend´s birthday so we all went out for that, then Saturday was a friend´s going away party.  So today is kind of about relaxing and stuff.  We watch the Holiday this afternoon and now we´re going to have scones at the British pub and grill.

 Yesterday was the kids´birthday party at the orphanage.  Thanks to Sherry for all the wonderful gifts, the kids went CRAZY.  We brought cake and presents and the kids were just beside themselves.  I think it was probably one of their best birthday.  Thanks to everyone who donated gifts and toys for the kids.  They were so happy and had such a great time. 

 We´ve gotten a lot of new people at the house which is interesting.  Since we are some of the people that have been here the longest, we´ve really had our share of people coming and going.  So, we´ve gotten kind of jaded with the whole “where are you from and what do you do” conversation.  So today we got about 5 new people which was just totally overwhelming.  It´s so strange just always living with new people. 

We miss you all!!  Love you!! XOXOX
