Lots of Snow... Lots of Fun!

For the past few weeks, the kids have had a break from school for winter vacation! Vacation time is always full of lots of fun and exciting activities…and this year has been no exception. Of course, the week before Christmas there was tons of snow, but the kids were still in school. The week of winter break, most of the snow in the area had melted away. However, one night we had a big snowfall, and the next day we took off with the kids and educators from Casa Rebeca to make the most of the snow and went sledding. We drove about an hour and a half from town where it was colder than it is in TM. We enjoyed the day, but we were freezing and could hardly feel our toes and fingers by the time we got home!



The next day, there was still some snow on the ground, and we were able to visit a park in town where they built a manmade sledding hill! We had a blast tubing down the “hill” and were so sad to see the day end! The kids got to go two at a time, make trains, go down on their bellies, and loved every second of it! Their laughter filled the entire park!


The festivities that winter brings have been fun and exciting, but we are ready to get back into the routine of school and normalcy! Please pray for the kids as they adjust back to normal life after a time full of fun, laughter, and lots and lots of activities!
