up coming wedding

Yesterday we celebrated Jake and Shontee's up-coming wedding; friends from church came over, friends we work with, students who come to our English classes. We ate, we laughed, we sang, etc. After a few snaffoos we finally got a video link between Oaxaca, Mexico and Portland, Oregon so everyone could greet the Novios in person. We are looking forward to our trip back to the States and spending some great days celebrating there also with more family and more friends. FELICIDADES JAKE AND SHONTEE!!!

Where are you going?

I went to visit a friend yesterday. I've been to her house before, but we drove there in a car, yesterday I took the bus, by myself. I left an hour early- to be sure to have enough time. It was a long ride on the bus so I got to thinking about where I am. It still boggles my mind at times, "I'm on a bus, in foreign country, not totally sure where I'm going, and I know I only have basic command of the language. What am I doing?" Well, it all worked out, it always does, but it is still a good question to ask where ever you are. What are you doing? and Why?
