So many parties, so much do to... but in 11 days we will be in the states! The season of christmas parties has begun, here is our party agenda! Friday night we had the 7th grade Christmas party. All students and parents were there for wonderful food and fun! This afternoon we have a piano recital of one of my 7th grade girls. Tuesday my Bible study is getting together to bake Christmas goodies to share in the last week. Thursday we have the 8th grade party, we are going to the hospital to give gifts to the children there. Friday night we have the elementary christmas play. Saturday afternoon we have the staff Christmas party, Saturday night we have a quincinera, it should be quite the elaborate celebration! And finally Sunday we are going to the coast for the 4th and 5th grade party. Also we have staff secret santa all week, which adds a little fun everyday! Hopefully all this celebrating will make the week go fast, because we also have a ton to do at school. All my finals are due Monday and they are finished, so that is a great feeling. Now I just have all my last test and lots of review for the week. Finals are the 15th-17th, but because we found really cheap tickets for the night of the 17th we will not be going to school on the 17th but instead heading to Guatemala City. That meanS all standards, writing samples, goals, and lesson plans for January and grades have to be in on Tuesday, that will be interesting, but so worth it. We are so excited to be in the MN with you all and ready for a three week break! I will leave you with the 23 weeks picture :)
