Happy Valentine's!

Some of you know that I was sick a few weeks ago and had to visit the hospital.  They kept me overnight for antibiotics- my first hospital stay ever!

This is the hospital.  It is a private hospital; the public one doesn't always have medicine or beds.

View from my room.

Rosa de jamaica, soup, chicken, rice, guisquil (the green vegetable), tortillas, and cantalope.

Cave Art

The first day they had to paint with sticks and things they found outside.

They were supposed to be drawing animals... I have no explanation...

Reading Time!

Deciding which book to read first.

Working on Words

Sushi Night  
Right now in my house are a lot of Japanese students, some from Taiwan, and 1 from Korea.  They know where to go for good sushi!  I don't care for it much myself, but they let me sample their dishes and I got chicken :)  

Titanic sushi

Banana roll-  sushi with a Guatemalan touch.

Some more from school...

Practicing our Kindness verse.  Some of them need it more than others.

Valentine's Day with a photo booth!

1B boys (including some of my students from last year)

How well my kids know me :)

Ultimamente...

Some of my pictures (and some borrowed) of school, Antigua, etc. lately. 

Happy 100 Days of School!
I can't believe how fast this year is going!

Our newly-carpeted playground area

Science Fair.  Put on by the 5th - 11th graders, but my kids had a lot of fun going around and seeing all the projects!

Art tree. (Have I shared this before?)

Sunny Sunday morning with some friends and co-workers :)

Cerro Santo Domingo

Just a little car trouble...

And the older kids performing "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory".

Oompa Loompas!

Beautiful Skies

I don't know how I missed sharing this with you.  It's from December and maybe the most amazing picture I've taken this year!  (It actually had a slight double rainbow, but this photo turned out best.)
