So again it's been awhile since I've posted but here are some pictures to update you. Things have been going pretty well....finally started to get a little homesick but I know time will go by fast because it's already September! Let us hear from you...it makes home seem closer!


Left to right: me, Summer, Katie...the three amigos. Summer had her birthday the first Sunday she was here and Katie and I baked her this cake!

Eliana and I. This is the precious girl I stayed with when I came to visit in March.

I am teaching earth science with fifth and sixth grade so we made bottle rockets. This is us :)

Emilio came out too to help translate. I didn't want any accidents because they couldn't understand my English...that would be VERY bad

Baking soda and vinegar and then shake it like a polaroid picture!!!

So...the bottle rockets didn't go quite as high as we hoped so I promised the kids a big explosion. This is me setting up mentos and Diet Coke

There's a video but this picture will have to do for now...it was quite the explosion

Let's just say that I didn't move my face out of the way in time and I was in the midst of the explosion. Of course the kids LOVED it!

Me drinking the remainder of the coke...the kids thought I deserved it after getting drenched

My class and Emilios after the explosion....so much fun!!

Crazy picture is mandatory of course!
