TGIF!!


Well, another week is coming to an end. We heard that our application for adoption was admitted to the courts on Thursday. We hope to get an appointment next week. If not the following week is Holy Week here and the government shuts down. So send up some prayers that we get an appointment next week! :) Emma, Danni and I headed to Megamaxi again this AM. We really didn't need anything but it was something to do. We needed to be back so that Emma could Skype with her class so it needed to be a short outing. We bought Danni a new puzzle. He is a whiz at puzzles. We brought two 35 piece puzzles with and he can do them with no help. He put together this new one all alone too! Smart kid!! Emma got a new "toy" - she has been working so hard with her school work that she deserved a fun toy. All toys are so expensive here - a "Sorry" game that we can get for $8 at home is almost $30. She got some doll thing that is local becasue it was only $8. She is having fun with it. We are not doing anything tonight as we are leaving at 7 AM tomorrow to do some sight seeing with Santiago. Hayden also had a very long week at work so hanging home and relaxing sounds good. Emma's Skype with her class was fun. They had 2 rooms of 4th graders Skype with her. They asked some questions but mainly just waved and made funny faces. Danni loves to Skype too. Just like Emma he likes to be silly and make faces. :) I really miss my dogs. This sweeping up after every meal is very over rated. Just get a dog - it is so much easier!! Plus I miss my morning 4 mile walks. I have not walked much since we have been here and I really am starting to miss it. Not much else today. Will try to blog tomorrow night but if we are too tired it may not be until Sunday. Will have lots of pictures then too. Good night! Mari
