Fun Times at KFC

Just a few funs pics

Of the kids hanging out with Colonel Sanders

I´m not sure why Jose is kissing him

I love their sweet faces!!

Easter Eggs!!

The kids were absolutely exhausted

But they really got into searching for their eggs, except Claudy, I´m not real sure what that little dance she´s doing is.

Sometimes I dabble in artistic photography

Jose won the hunt with 9 eggs!

Escarleth came in second.  Her hair cracks me up.  She had it in pigtails the day before and didn´t want to put it in a pony tail.

Sweet Dayana was about to fall asleep she was so exhausted

And Claudy could hardly hide her disappointment at not winning

Trying not to spill the eggs on the way home. 

Everyone showing off their winnings

Painting Eggs

I decided to impress our silly American customs on these sweet minds. 

So we HAD to paint eggs for Easter

It was a little messy

But a lot of fun

The kids really got into it.

And were REALLY excited when I told them they could mix the colors if they wanted to.

We could have taken these pics all night

But these two were the best.

Giving Back

During Holy Week, the kids were off of school and we decided it would be a great time to introduce them to lives of service that we hope will spill over into all aspects of their life.

So we decided to make cookies for the fire and police men of Tegucigalpa

The kids had a great time making cookies

And were really excited about visiting police and firemen

Our first stop was the main fire station for the city.  The kids were really shy at first.

But the firemen loved it. 

Climbing up into the fire truck at the fire station in La Vega (right next to Baxter)

They were sooo excited to be in the big truck

Fireman Jose, The girls were afraid to wear the clothes.

The kids with the head fireman.  He had lots of fun showing them around

Fireman Darwin saving Escarleth

The police can´t have their picture taken in Honduras but here they are with the police truck.

In total we visited three different places and put a lot of smiles on a lot of faces.  The kids also got an up close and personal look at some of the people serving in their communities.  We hope to do this once a month from now on and show appreciation for a very under appreciated profession in Honduras.

Bounce House

The other day the kids finished their homework early so we decided to blow up the little bounce house I have in the garage. 

It was a huge hit, even if the pictures are a little blurry

Claudy on the slide

Dayana sweating but grinning from ear to ear

Jose stopped playing soccer in the bounce house to take this picture.  He was a little impatient.

They all had a blast.
