Above is Rodrigo and I, he is one of my favorite kids! He always runs up to me and hugs me around the waist, such a sweetheart. Below is another teacher Megan and I, and Rogrigo and Andrea.
Saturday in Tehuacan
One of the ladies that works for ILP, Julietta, showed us around Tehuacan last weekend! We went to some kind of natural springs, there were 5 pools in all, and 3 water slides! It was so much fun, we even put together a synchronized swimming routine with some of the other teachers haha. When we were all worn out from swimming we relaxed on the grass and enjoyed the warm Mexican sun. :) The above picture is us in the back of a truck driving to the pools. We fit 11 of us in the back of a pickup truck! Legal? I don't know. Fun? YES!!
I took this picture for ALIZAE. :) This was just on one of the walls at the pool. Random! But I love it. Glad to know they found Nemo here in Mexico too.
The picture above is at the movies, we got to go see Iron Man 2... in ENGLISH!! I loved it, mostly because it was all in english. :) It had spanish subtitles though. It was a pretty good movie though! I loved how our row would laugh at least 10 seconds before the rest of the theatre at the funny parts because the spanish subtitles hadn't shown up yet. :) Picture below... this is an actual store! It reminded me of you, Jake. haha just kidding! But I really contemplated on if I should tell them that their store is named after a wide-spread foot fungus in the U.S.... I should have told them. That would have resolved their concern on why the crazy americans kept laughing and taking pictures of their store.
This is the aftermath... ouch. Should've worn sunscreen! haha
Quinceañera Party!
My family took me to a quinceañera party, it´s a fifteenth birthday party. They are huge here in Mexico, when the girls turn 15 they have a HUGE fiesta, it´s like their 'coming out' party. I had no idea what to expect, but it was so much fun. There was alot of food, alot of dancing, and then some more dancing! I even learned a few traditional mexican dances. :)
These are my Mexican parents!! They are such amazing people, I want to be like them in a lot of ways some day. They are so giving and so loving! Sandra y Cristian.
Someone put this hat on me during one of the dances, so I had to get a picture. :) In the picture below you can see how many people were there, SO so many! It was bigger than even any wedding I have been to.
