Feliz Navidad y un feliz neuvo ano

Hey all!
Just want to wish you a Happy New Year and Merry Christmas from Honduras! It is hard to believe that it is Christmas when the sun is shining and it is like over 20C here. My dad and Rachel, Candace, and Laurence are here until the 27th - making it officially the first Christmas our family has been apart. It is pretty neat to have them be here and see what life is like - (if anyone else wants to come for a visit let me know!)
Anyways, after they leave on the 27th I am heading south to Costa Rica for a few days - I mean how often is it only a country away? I also hope to post more in the new year on the teaching/ cultural part of my life - I feel that I have been lax in that area and I am going to try to step it up.
Love you all,
