...celebran la vida, celebran la vida...

¨celebran la vida¨is a song that means celebrate life that the kindergardeners are learning for their graduation in december. and i thought it would be a good title for some of the photos i´m posting...
not too long ago, we had an all volunteer conference where all 90 something volunteers met at a campsite, got to know each other, and received some more training. most of us went a day early to be together on election day and get some cable. that will explain the first picture and first celebration. the next one is from the halloween party we had at our training. there i am in the middle celebrating yet another huge success!! then, you´ll find a picture of a new bridge and one then one that fell 13 years ago. the only bridge connecting us to the next town over is FINALLY almost done after more than a decade of needing it. motorcycles and people can now cross and we just have a little more to do before cars can cross too. and finally, you´ll see me modeling lovely botas that are completely necessary in these rainy months. buuuut, it looks like the rain maaay be dying down, the sun is shining, and my feet are nice and dry. so, there you have it. there are a lot of celebrations in order!
in other news, we are having another futbol tournement in my town, this time out in the outdoor plaza. the women and i from the womens group are going to sell food to make some money for the group. so that´ll keep us busy for the next 14 sundays, haha. we also will be having festivals in our town at the end of the month which should be quite an experience. we are also head deep in project proposals for a medical facility in our town so hopefully there will be good news soon with that. soooo, hope all is well with everyone back home. keep up the phone calls and start checking on flights to come visit!! :)
