It seems whenever we talk to people we hear "We like your pictures." So, you can choose to browse these if you'd like.
This month has been a bit restrictive with the constant rain. Even the local people have begun to complain and when I wore my boots to church the other night I was accosted more than a few times by people asking for boots - or asking for MY boots. (I'm still shaky with translating so need to be careful what I agree to!) However, we have had many good, good opportunities to catch up and as always, snap a few pictures.
First weekend things:
Tamales are celebration food. Our next door neighbour brought us tamales to celebrate our return. The next day we had tamales at the church for New Year's Eve. Suyapa brought us tamales the next day for New Year's Day. We had a tamale fest!
Kid things:
Karla has made a pair of pyjama pants.
Carlos is a careful sander and painter, and has worked on our flower beds.
