Recent events as told through pictures....


Jeremy came and taught the kids to do a wood working project. They made bird houses and loved it! Pictured here is Jeremy and Anthony.



Jeff's helping some of the boys in their cutting and measuring.



We had a team from Wasco come over Thanksgiving. I had two amazing girls at my site, Emily and Lauren!




Tests were done for the year, so we did leaf rubbings and various art projects with the kids.



We played soccer in the rain and it was pretty fantastic!



Teaching some of the kids all important skills, such as whistling.



We had 14 kids show up at our Christmas party. Jeff and Olivia came to help out. In this picture, the kids are decorating bags.



The kids still working on their bags, which went incredibly smoothly.



We also decorated sugar cookies with the kids. I'm pretty sure it was their first time doing so, seeing as they didn't know what frosting was. In this picture are: Luis, Kairo, Angel and Andres





We also played, pin the tail on the donkey that Mary rode into Bethlehem. The kids tended to help each other and use their free hand to feel where they should pin the tail, thus the reason for all the tails to be in basically the right spot.



Me and all the kids from our Christmas party.




And, of course, it got a little crazy- frosting began to fly!
