Merry Christmas!

I just realized that it has been almost a month since I last updated this blog. Well, the last month has just flown by! Christmas is just around the corner and I have been here for almost 5 months! In some ways time seems to go so quickly here, but then there are days when time just seems to stand still.

As I mentioned, Thanksgiving went well. I can't remember if I mentioned about our school football team (soccer). We won 3rd place in a tournament this year- Go Crocs! The boys were so excited and proud of themselves.

School was just one major whirlwind the past month. Between the beginning of the trimester, Christmas program stuff, progress reports and the actual program itself- I don't know where the time went. The program was this past Monday (which was also the last day of school). It went very well and we were all excited to see our kids finally perform. Needless to say we were also glad that it was over- I think we all needed a break and nice refresher. I have enjoyed being a lazy bum the past few days. Though it is also a holiday here and is tradition to go see your friends. So I have been doing that as well.

Next week we leave to go to Kenya for about 2 weeks. I am pretty pumped about that. It will be great to see some green again- and some wildlife other than geckos, roaches, ants, sheep, and goats :-)

That's about all the updates I have for now. Hope you all have a very merry Christmas!
