We kicked off the holidays with some visitors from the States that helped us buy Christmas presents for all of our cute little kids in Villa Maria. CLICK HERE to see a video.
We experienced how Peruvians celebrate Christmas! CLICK HERE to see what happens in Peru when the clock strikes midnight on Christmas Day!
We said goodbye to Heather and Carolina, as they would be spending Christmas break in the States for weddings, family time, etc.
Then our visitors arrived! Sorry Lyndsay and family - I don't have any pictures of your visits to update with, so you just get to see my adventures for now!
Joshua came to help out with the team from December 19 to January 10 and I tried to soak up every minute I had with him!
