Whoops! I missed posting yesterday! A bunch of the English speaking people living in Honduras got together at one of the missionary family's house and tried to have a bonfire night. Somehow, whenever we PLAN a bonfire in this country, it always rains on our fun. Then again, it rains a lot here anyways, so that should be expected. Anyway, we ended up having a great time of fellowship and getting to hang out with people we don't normally get to. I am incredibly thankful for the ability to get to know so many people while being here. I also don't usually enjoy playing Apples to Apples, but we played last night and it was actually pretty fun. We also had some FANTASTIC chocolate chip cookies, and ended with some fireworks in the backyard. Fireworks are really pretty, but I'm slightly fearful for my life when they're set off so close to me! Anyway, that's what I'm thankful for from yesterday.
Today, well today marks three months exactly since all of us new English teachers arrived! Woohoo! It's been a great three months of change and faith-stretching and obedience and challenges and heartbreak and laughter and Jesus conversations. It's for sure good to be in Honduras for this season of my life. I wouldn't want to be anywhere else! To celebrate, Caitlin and I went to the place known for having baleadas bigger than your head, literally. Okay, maybe it wasn't to celebrate, we don't really need an excuse EVER to eat baleadas. I am, however, very thankful for those wonderful slices of heaven, and a friend/roommate like Caitlin to spend time with and is usually thinking the same thing as me when it comes to food! Speaking of food, Caitlin and I got a cheesecake from the hospital cafeteria here...don't judge us for the fact that we literally spent 25 American dollars for it. Good news is it's HUGE and is delicious enough to certainly be worth that much. Sometimes, the food here just really surprises you with how fantastic it tastes. =)
