We went to our English-speaking church again today. This time we went with a new American family that checked into our hotel this week. It was a very nice time and we sang lots of Christmas carols. I don't really know how the pastor is because after the singing I always have to go to the nursery with Laura. She thinks when the singing stops that we all want to hear her voice!! After church, the three of us took naps since it was raining outside. A little bit later our new friends knocked on our door to tell us the sun had come out and they were going to an open-air market several blocks away. We decided to go with them. It was a nice walk and we were able to find a few things to buy at the market. We have decided to get Laura 18 little presents from Colombia to give her on December 1st (the day she joined our family)each year. We got started on that shopping today. We had helpy-selfy dinner tonight...hot dogs and mac-n-cheese!! It was delicious. We followed that with a Snickers for dessert. Very healthy, I know:) We didn't take many pictures today. We'll try to do better tomorrow. Hope you all had a nice weekend!!Sunday, December 14, 2008
